What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive experience in video production and team leadership while fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.

I am an executive producer with over 20 years of experience in video production, directing, and leading creative teams. I have successfully launched media projects from the ground up in the United Kingdom and built scalable production workflows, overseeing everything from filming to final post-production. My work has delivered over 100 projects, including documentaries, scripted series, advertising campaigns, and educational content.

Throughout my career, I have led cross-functional teams of over 40 specialists, negotiated with clients and investors, and maintained full budget oversight. I have optimized production processes, reducing costs by 20-25% and shortening delivery timelines without compromising quality. My strategic thinking, creative leadership, and strong technical expertise enable me to take on complex, high-responsibility projects with full-cycle management.

I am open to international remote collaboration and am ready to tackle challenging projects that require innovative solutions and effective team coordination. My goal is to continue delivering high-quality content that engages audiences and meets the strategic objectives of my clients.
