Jenny began her career with a part in cult Welsh feature film 'Twin Town', whilst still in her teens. She took on just a few more acting roles over the following year, before quitting the coalface to go to college.She studied drama and education at the Central School of Speech and Drama, before completing a post-graduate diploma in TV Current Affairs Journalism at City University, both in London.Graduating from City in 2005, Jenny has since been working in TV current affairs and documentary, in the UK and abroad. She has worked on Channel 4's Cutting Edge, Unreported World and Dispatches, ITV's Exposure and Panorama at the BBC as well as numerous docu-dramas. She has produced shoots in Brazil, India, Vietnam, Poland and across the US, often securing tricky access, such as to prisons, criminal gangs and survivors of crime.In 2017 Jenny established her own company, Poor Dog Films Ltd, in order to be able to make the kind of documentary and factual drama films she is most interested in and to have more autonomy over content.When not working in television, Jenny was for many years Nick Davies of The Guardian's researcher and therefore, alongside him, was one of the people who helped expose the police corruption story that would later become known as the 'phone hacking scandal'.Having lived in London for a long time, Jenny has now settled in Bristol with her husband Jasper, their son Leo and Cwtch the cat.
