I view the 12 years that I was based in London, working for BBC and CNN International, as my adult education.

Travelling all over the globe, covering a myriad of assignments, my existing beliefs and understandings about humanity were greatly challenged.  Whilst filming in over 50 countries, I observed vast differences in political, cultural and societal ways. And yet, I kept noticing common threads that we all share. Such intricate connections, that unite us, rather than just create conflict and division.

I love the gift of life, and have been honoured to traverse this wide swathe of humanity, experiencing and recording many amazing people and events through my camera lens.  I try to be present and open to what I witness and record, and endeavour to evolve daily.

 I do believe that despite doomsday scenarios, we, as a species, can move into a new era of hope. But it will take an awakening spirit, and a collective effort.

Continually, I am amazed at the growing number of other kindred folk, that share this evolving perspective of a brighter future for all.  My favourite quote from Einstein is:

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them”.

This seems very relevant to a global shift in consciousness, which is sorely needed to work in tandem with our recent technology boom, and massive advancements in AI . Through my craft of cinematography, I hope to work  further with those players that are instrumental in that shift. 

 In this vein, I take on, shoot and edit, smaller projects such as the one below, to help promote others on this path.
