3 reviewsI am a multilingual (English, Spanish, Portuguese) filmmaker, producer and translator. My broadcast debut as a director, 'Voices of Survival', screened on Al Jazeera English in late 2022. I have had a range of production roles, from Researcher on the Emmy-nominated feature doc 'The Art of Political Murder' through to Line Producer and Field Producer across films for HBO, Al Jazeera, The Guardian and Business Insider. My skills include fact-checking, access, public information requests, location clearance, archive, historical research, treatment and article writing. I have translated from Spanish and Portuguese into English on over 15 productions and also have interpreting experience.
My journalism and content has appeared in various publications including Vice, Open Democracy, New Internationalist, Latin America Bureau.
My own short films as a director have previously screened at the Tate Exchange, Bertha Doc House, ICA, South London Gallery and at festivals. I previously received a fellowship with One World Media for a short film I shot in Brazil. I have also been commissioned by cultural organizations, scriptwriters and charities to film event videos.
