Biography

the story so far...

I was born in Uganda and grew up in Kenya. I studied photography, then post-graduate film and television at the Royal College of Art in London. My professional life has been spent taking photographs and making television documentaries for Channel 4, FIVE, the BBC, Discovery, National Geographic, WGBH Boston/NOVA. I’ve listed some of the programmes under Credits. I’ve been taking photographs since I was 16 when I set up a darkroom in our house in Nairobi, Kenya.

I spend more time working as a photographer whilst continuing to make films and television programmes.

I speak Swahili, French and English.
