Work Summary
I like taking the scenic route to work, from producing/directing films for the BBC to publishing books, to creating the ultimate online platform for people who want to work their own way!

My Highlights
I've had some peaks [and troughs] over the last ten years since uni. Some work highlights include -
• As a BBC Producer/Director - I made a series of award-winning films for some of BBC's flagship shows
• Covered the 9/11 attacks for BBC World, whilst I was working at BBC America during 2001
• Had a best-selling anthology published worldwide about the child survivors of the tsunami; directed audiobook narrated by stars such as Val Kilmer, Sean Bean, Stephen Fry, Dawn French...
• Founded and produced first Oxford Cameron Mackintosh New Writing Festival in 1998, partnered with National Theatre, RADA, LAMDA and Central drama schools
Some work lowlights include getting fired from a host of mind-numbing tele/soul-selling jobs, and sweeping carparks for Blockbuster Video... nice
