G’day!
As a filmmaker, I’m passionate about discovering beauty in the seemingly mundane. I love telling stories about the underdogs and the unspoken heroes.
My storytelling craft stems from being a stills photographer. I discovered the magic of video editing at the start of my career at Fox Sports cutting 30second promos; I then moved onto producing and editing skater/surfing athlete profiles and eventually long-form documentaries… that was a while ago now.
As a freelance director, I enjoy being in the trenches with producers and clients, finding solutions to their creative challenges. I’m all about sniffing out the magic and creating visually captivating, entertaining stories regardless of the medium: short commercials or longer documentaries.
I also love carajillo, curry or catching waves…not at the same time though that’s an idea!
