I have more than 15 years' experience in the film and television industry as a producer, editor and videographer. I have worked for terrestrials, major streamers and numerous indies as staff and as a freelancer through my own production company, Woodcraft Films.
I am versatile and innovative, with a proven flare for storytelling and content creation across drama, documentary, social and commercial. I am equally at home running a large crew or working as a one man production unit, and have crafted films for clients ranging from small independent businesses to some of the world’s biggest brands.
