Documentary
I honed my documentary skills during a Science Communication MSc. In the 9 years since then I've been devising creative ways to tell the most interesting and complex stories. My work captures scientists, dancers, activists, free-runners, patients, and musicians from London to the deepest parts of the ocean. I've met researchers working at 5,300m above sea level on Mount Everest, and at 4,000m below in the deep ocean. I've directed orchestras to explain genetics, used plasticine to untangle malaria transmission and lego to demonstrate how we search for life on other planets. My malaria short won the 2016 Association of British Science Writer's award for best TV Programme/web film.
