Professional Info
I'm an Auckland based filmmaker. I graduated with a Bachelor of Performing and Screen Arts from Unitec Film School, majoring in directing and writing for screen. I have on set experience both in Unitec and externally. I am always ready to learn, and the best way to learn, in my opinion, is to do. I have experience in many aspects of production and post-production. I am a hard worker (no stranger to long hours) and can pick up skills fast. Above all I am enthusiastic about film, and nothing makes me happier than working on a great project with great people.

Tauranga Boys' College was where I found my love of performing and creating. It was through the Performing Arts (acting, writing, music) that I was lead to Directing live performance, and found that I had a taste for the construction of story. Through Media Studies I found my median; film.

In the Screen Arts course at Unitec, students begin by studying all aspects of film, from editing and sound, to production and writing. I major in Directing. Over three years, we not only hone our on set and pre production skills, we more importantly go through a process of assessing our own influences, likes and dislikes to establish and evolve our own style of film-making.
