I enjoy all aspects of film and television and have a multitude of skills and abilities as a result, but my passion lies with cameras. I have a strong technical knowledge as well as an eye for capturing and telling stories in an engaging way. My interest stems from my love of photography, people, and adventure - ultimately, I want to use my skills to share meaningful stories.
My immediate interest is to work with News Camera and Field Operations here in NZ, to expand my skillset and knowledge to be a valuable asset in industry. Long-term, my aim is to focus on documentary filmmaking or visual journalism in the remote locations and less-travelled corners of the globe - sharing elements of life which most people don't otherwise experience.
I believe my work speaks to my abilities and character better than words, so, please enjoy the wide range of projects I've worked on over the last few years!
