I started my career at the London Studios in 1998 as a trainee camera assistant going on to Teddington studios where I graduated to camera operator.

I went freelance in 2002 and started to stretch out into the world of outside broadcast and single camera operation. In 2008 I purchased a Tiffen Ultra2 Steadicam and over the years have expanded my kit, as new innovations have entered the market. I have always enjoyed the challenge of working across different genres in TV and film and have hugely benefited from the variety, successfully  integrating the skills I've developed to complement any production demands.

I hold a US work visa valid to March 2027
