About Virginia
Award-winning Director and Series Producer | Wildlife, Environmental & Specialist Factual Storytelling
I am a proven creative leader with a track record of crafting acclaimed wildlife, environmental, and specialist factual documentaries for global platforms including Disney+, BBC, Tencent, PBS, Discovery+, Nat Geo, and Smithsonian.
My career has taken me to the most remote corners of Africa, Asia and the Americas, often working in challenging environments and isolated regions, where I’ve filmed urgent environmental issues, captured some of the most elusive wildlife on Earth and revealed powerful human stories, to deliver bold, cinematic storytelling with impactful narrative depth.
My strength lies in leading ambitious productions from concept through to delivery. This includes shaping original series formats, directing technically demanding shoots, and developing fresh editorial approaches. I’m known for my creative vision, resilience under pressure, and ability to navigate sensitive subjects and access, allowing me to deliver compelling, globally relevant stories that blend cinematic flair with editorial substance.
I have dual bases in the UK and on a big game reserve in South Africa close to Kruger National Park, with a specialised 4 x 4 filming vehicle and kit based on site. This means I’m uniquely positioned to facilitate access and film in Southern Africa through my ongoing relationships with local wildlife and conservation communities, scientists, fixers and on the ground contacts.
Whether collaborating with conservation partners, filming rare wild animals, or managing sensitive access, I approach every project with purpose.
