A few years ago, I discovered video-journalism as a field that allowed me to easily combine my existing interest and skills in filmmaking, audio production, editing and writing, proving to be an ideal start to a career behind the camera.

Working for the BBC has been one of the most valuable experiences in my career, and has provided me with the essential skills and the technical know-how needed to work under pressure to broadcast to millions of viewers worldwide.

Below you can find some of the reports and stories I’ve been fortunate enough to cover.
