I’m a showrunner, producer, director, and writer

with over 20 years of experience in comedy, documentary-style, and unscripted television.

Creativity is where I start. I’m drawn to ideas with a clear point of view, strong voices, and real people at the centre.

Development is a core part of my work. I take a kernel of an idea and build it into a fully formed, production-ready show. I clarify point of view, structure, and tone, making sure the concept holds up both creatively and practically. I shape ideas into finished shows that land, without sanding off what made them feel alive in the first place.

I work with creators, networks, and teams who want projects that feel clear, intentional and well made, even under pressure. I can step in early to build an idea from the ground up, or come in midstream to help a project find its footing, sharpen its voice, and protect tone as the work evolves. I bring a strong sense of structure, pacing, and character, and I know how to respond when stories start to shift on set or in post.

I have strong, trusted relationships with executives. I lead discussions, translate feedback into clear creative direction, and make sure everyone feels confident the project is moving forward on time and on budget.

I’m also involved in shaping how a show is introduced to the world, ensuring the messaging, press, and rollout align with the creative.

I create environments where talent and teams feel trusted, supported, and focused, because that’s when the best work happens. I encourage smart risk, and balance creative freedom with intention so ambitious concepts connect with audiences in a real way.

Testimonials

TESTIMONIAL #1

After today's budget call I wanted to put in writing how grateful I am for all your hard work, talent, creativity, skill and determination to get us to this point in such a great place both creatively and budget-wise.  You are the vital engine room setting and keeping the tone and keeping the relationships working in all sorts of ways - often in very challenging circumstances.

TESTIMONIAL #2

Wow - did you live up to the billing!

You took a rare and untested assignment: a hybrid news/celebration show, with mixed teams, dual-control rooms, and all LIVE across FOUR hours. Zero blue-print. Just an idea and a blank piece of paper.

And. You. Nailed. It.

Thank you! The show was outstanding. Tonally perfect. Gorgeous production. Celebratory of Heather Hiscox, and in many ways of the CBC and public broadcasting. 

And through it all, everyone was so appreciative of your professionalism, curiosity and passion, and I saw the respect and camaraderie you were able to develop with our News leaders, and of course, Heather.

We thank you so much....

What I’m Doing

I’m currently building original IP across formats, with a particular focus on projects that blend humour, emotional truth, and grounded storytelling.

I’m looking to partner on ambitious shows that value strong creative leadership and a clear point of view.
