I also have experience of working in conflict zones, covering major riots in China in 2008 and 2009, and I was in Libya for one month, during the fall of Tripoli, working for APTN. I have also covered several natural disasters, including the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake and flooding in Southern China. As well as possessing exceptional writing skills, my work in TV and new media, has given me a unique skill set, enabling me to get a message out to the widest possible audience, in the most engaging way and often to a tight budget. Working as a video journalist/producer, I have acquired further skills as a story-teller. I am an excellent lighting cameraman and video editor, filming on a wide range of cameras and formats and able to script and edit to tight deadlines. I am also a skilled Steadicam operator, with my own rig, suitable for most requirements.

I like weird people and weird people like me. I am a multi-platform reporter with a passion for visuals. I came into journalism through photography, where I am well versed in breaking news, long-term features, portraiture and pretty much everything in between. Starting in 2013 I began translating that experience into videos; both documentary style longer pieces and short, punchy, social media-friendly vignettes. Oh, and I write. I cover a little bit of everything and have an affinity for characters who seem a bit too weird to be real. Alternatively and more "seriously," I have a strong interest in global urban development, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. I've worked in cities around the world, as a videographer, photographer and writer (and sometimes all three) for publications ranging from The Guardian to MSNBC to Al Jazeera America. I've shot photographs for AP, AFP and Reuters, and worked independently in Nigeria, South Africa, Zimbabwe and others.
