Career

With fellow student and girlfriend, Heidi Lindvall, they set up a film production company. They made a film about the suppression of the media in Sri Lanka a week after the civil war ended, the success of which allowed them to work in television.[1] Though based in London, the couple followed their work in post-conflict areas around the world, living in several places, including Berlin.[1]
