I've spent over twenty years at the forefront of delivering breaking news and in-depth analysis to global and UK domestic audiences.

Whether reporting from the heart of major events or anchoring from the studio, I am dedicated to delivering accurate and impactful journalism that helps make sense of a world that is awash with disinformation.
