It started down in Dunedin where, as a young university freshman, I picked up a camera and began documenting the world around me. A part time job working at the Photo Warehouse, New Zealand's leading camera store, lead me to developing an even greater passion for the craft.

A couple of years went by and right before the pandemic came at full force, I made the move up to Auckland to work for Fujifilm as part of their Electronic Imaging team. Everything I had learnt as a self-taught creative now had to be put it into practice from a business sense. I learnt a wealth of knowledge being in this environment, the challenges were immense which led me to curating and developing an even stronger love for learning and taking on new projects.

The next chapter was upon me which resulted in some solo travel across Asia. Somewhere along this journey I fell in love with the process of visual, emotive storytelling all over again. I arrived back into Bali due to its digital nomad lifestyle and had an eye-opening time curating a variety of photo and video work for YouTube. 

Two weeks before I was due to leave for Europe and kick it all off again, I was involved in a scooter crash where I broke my collarbone and elbow. A bold decision to come back to New Zealand for surgery made for a gruelling plane ride home, alongside a lengthy healing journey that resulted in a huge amount of resilience and strength instilled into me.

I thrive off seeing brands, projects and visions come to life with this flowing through to all facets of my life.
