Award-winning documentaries connecting people, science and life.
During these challenging times, science has never been more valued or prominent, with breakthroughs – and the stories behind them – emerging in labs across the world at an unprecedented rate. My research background in virology, molecular biology and neuroscience ensures I'm able to quickly and simply navigate complex scientific areas and help you make the best possible films, whomever the audience.
Who are you? Maybe you're a research institution, university, museum or charity with a human story, scientist or breakthrough you'd like to share with the world. From initial ideas through to final branding and delivery, I can help at every stage.
Why me? Passionate about storytelling, I’ve continued to develop my visual approach and impactful style of filmmaking within scientific institutions and museums across the world. Specialising in short (1-5min), science-inspired stories with heart, these films have been used with great success on a variety of platforms, featuring scientists, their breakthroughs and powerful human stories.
As an experienced one-person unit, my approach to filmmaking is highly collaborative and nimble – having been a scientist myself, I fully appreciate the need to keep disruption to a minimum – while portraying scientists as passionate human beings. This also means I’m able to work closely with my clients, helping with creative input, production, branding and delivery. A key strength of this approach is that it allows for a more intimate and informal interview setting, a factor often commented on in the resulting films, as it allows an interviewee to relax and let their personality shine.
If you have an idea brewing – no matter how early stage – I’m always happy to have an informal chat about it. You can contact me at

After interviewing Sir David Attenborough, he indicated he was surprised that I was doing everything alone, at which point I explained why I thought it could often get better results. His response, "Often, one man bands play the best tunes!"
