Ehara tākau toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini. - My strength is not as an individual, but as a collective.
I thrive working in a team to bring creativity and quality storytelling to moving pictures. I have a passion for content creation, as well as a thirst for the intricacies of television and film.
Those that know me, describe me as proactive, hard worker and a forward thinker. I began a videography business at 16yrs old, using my skills to help others. Although a challenge, I learnt to be professional and work with a diverse range of clients.
Personally, I thrive on constant learning. I soak up new skills easily and enjoy delivering quality work with integrity.
I would very much appreciate the opportunity to intern with you and believe I would be a pleasant and diligent addition to your team.
