my experience

I'm a Series Director and Shooting PD with 25 years in broadcast TV, combining strong storytelling with a high-end visual style—grounded in a decade as a Lighting Cameraman. I specialise in Factual, Unscripted, and Documentary, with a knack for finding compelling characters and getting the best from people on camera.

Recent directing credits include Ill Gotten Gains (BBC1/DSP), Irish Pickers (A&E/Curve Media), Stop Search Seize (Sky One), The Complaints Bureau, and Help Me Buy a Home. Documentary work includes the RTS Award-winning What Daire Did Next, Re Rooted, and We Need to Talk About Dementia.

As a Shooting PD, I've worked on George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces (C4/Plum Pictures). I shoot with a Sony FX9 and fly drones (Mavic 2 Pro) as a licensed and insured operator.

I’m driven by curiosity and a love for bringing real people and their stories to life on screen.
