I'm a freelance TV & Digital Content Producer, with excellent camera operating and editing skills.
After 7 years of working full-time for sporting powerhouses IMG Productions, Premier League Productions and British Cycling, I founded Toolebox Films in 2018 to create exceptional video content for brands and organisations in a whole range of industries.
