About
I'm a highly experienced TV correspondent with a proven track record of creative storytelling and breaking new lines. I'm a confident and engaging live performer, who can self-shoot and self-edit. From Tokyo to Tallinn, Kazakhstan to the Copacabana, I've reported from all over the world. Whatever the story, I can always find the right words to make it come alive.
