After working on a freelance basis since the establishment of Gorgeous Films in 2005, I secured a position as a full-time employee in July 2011. Working for Gorgeous Films entailed filming high net worth, client events in the U.K and abroad. Intuition was essential, as well as possessing the ability to think on one's feet and lead a team. The sales position required me to attend various exclusive, weekend events around the U.K. where I acted as the face of Gorgeous Films. I was responsible for meeting and discussing the businesses services, producing leads from various customers as well as other artistic responsibilities.

A freelance camera operator and editor, for Terrestrial Television, Independent films, Docs, Adverts, Music Videos and Promos. Mostly based in the UK, but more further afield projects took me to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
