Multimedia journalist | documentary producer

I’m a multimedia reporter specialising in visual investigations using open-source intelligence.

 

At The Economist, I launched and now lead the reporting on our investigative videos, frequently reaching millions on social media.​ My videos on Russian recruitment, disinformation and sabotage campaigns were nominated for best journalism-based video at the Future of Media awards. 

 

I also write about defence and contribute to the daily current affairs podcast, The Intelligence. For narrative podcast series, The Weekend Intelligence, I investigated the black market in human-enhancement drugs.

My love of following paper trails started with my first proper job on BBC’s “Who Do You Think You Are?”. I went on to be the only researcher on a BAFTA-winning episode. This led to a follow-up series: “remarkably moving TV… it is a story I suspect I will never forget” (The Guardian, 5 stars)​

My work in documentaries has also involved dissecting the complicated relationships at the heart of power for “Blair and Brown: A New Labour Revolution” (“a stirring, illuminating watch”, The Guardian) and interrogating the data behind our warming planet for David Attenborough’s “Climate Change: The Facts” (“a rousing call to arms”, The Guardian).
