I am a TV Producer and a full-time adrenaline seeker, dedicated to bringing unique, world-first productions to major TV networks and production companies. I’ve never been afraid to take on new challenges because testing yourself is what life is all about. It excites me to bring together a team of people to conquer the ‘unknown’ and to push the boundaries of broadcast entertainment. Those moments when you achieve something others can’t - those split second decisions that capture unique moments or critical live coverage - that is the thrill that drives me to create exceptional, world class content, every time. For over 20 years, I have produced and distributed moving image (video) content in Australia and across the world. I’ve produced major sporting events such as F1, Moto GP, V8 Supercars and the Tour Down Under, cultural entertainment shows such as Deep Water 2 and audience leading programs in the youth landscape such as Planet X. Being a genuine fan of sports, lifestyle and entertainment, I establish a real connection with a show, exploring innovative ways to create stories and narratives that position people at the very heart of the action.I have a reputation for providing strong leadership, that I liken to the captain of a sports team. I seek to create an environment that pulls people together in periods of pressure, creating genuine energy and excitement around the challenges to be overcome together. In an environment where the stakes are high, I champion resilience and energy as the key to reducing the tension and turning up the fun. After all, we have the best chance of creating programming our audiences love if we enjoy the ride ourselves. I welcome new connections from like-minded professionals.
