My career
How did it prepare you for the world of work?
Whilst studying I was able to develop a particular interest in sports production and specialist camera work.
My first major industry opportunity came while researching filming in extreme sports – which ultimately led to an opportunity with a London-based company working on Top Gear. I have since gone on to work on Formula E, Carpool Karaoke, World Rallying and much more.
My work has also taken me around the world, including to Japan, Saudi Arabia, the USA, Indonesia, Thailand and locations across Europe.
