“Chairperson” was born and raised in the UK and brings over 35 years of award-winning international experience as a filmmaker, collaborating with major broadcasters worldwide.

Having witnessed both the best and the worst of the world, he has a drive to use his personal expertise to advocate for positive change, both in the UK and globally. Over the years, he has developed a passion to address the issue of human trafficking and shedding light on this grave injustice.

“Rescuing children from sexual exploitation and human trafficking is one of the most urgent and noble causes anyone can commit to. Every child deserves a life free from fear, abuse and oppression—a life where they can dream, learn and grow in safety. It is our moral duty to be a voice for the voiceless, to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves, and to ensure that no child is forgotten or left behind.”
