I'm excited to share that I joined @reuters.com earlier this month as their first Social Media Video Reporter!

I'll focus on social-first video production for the agency's millions of followers on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and more.

From nature reserves to nightclubs, it’s been an experience-packed journey.

I’ve worked with some of the industry's most talented video journalists, producers, editors and writers, and I’m so grateful to know them.

For all of these reasons, thank you, AP.

Journalism is also witnessing parts of history. Like working for news when Boris Johnson resigned. And being at Buckingham Palace as the Queen’s death was announced.

I met a dog influencer, covered countless art exhibitions from Picasso to Rubens, interviewed astronauts, an AI-powered robot, drag queens, CEOs, numerous scientists and researchers.

This is my last week at AP.

I feel incredibly privileged to have worked at such a prestigious news organisation.

I’ve learnt a ton. Over the last two and a half years, I’ve filed hundreds of stories. I travelled all over the UK and Europe.

I'm back in London after my assignment in Lapland for AP.

In four days, I shot six 7-minute features, one news story and a short vertical.

The video equipment might have coped with the cold (up to -22!) better than my fingers did.

These four astronauts are set to orbit the Moon next year.

Among them, the first woman, first person of colour, and first Canadian on a lunar mission.

They’re part of a new immersive documentary at the Lightroom, produced by Tom Hanks.
