I operate as a freelance Producer / Line Producer in Sydney and have worked on TV commercials, music videos, corporate films, event videos, branded entertainment and EPKs.

2012 started well, with a couple of jobs directed by Tom Spark for AMVI and my latest with Ben West from @radical delivering three spots for the Woolworths Select brand via their new agency Droga 5.

Last year I was teamed with Tom Spark at Flying Fish a New Zealand and Australian production company doing TVCs and a couple of fun music videos for The Vines. In 2010, I was freelancing over at comeyhouse Jungleboys, producing mainly for director Luke Eve and the directors' collaboration of Al Morrow (previously director of The Chaser's I think I CANberra) and Trent O'Donnell (Review w Myles Barlow).

My career began 15 years ago in Queensland (1995) working as a Production Co-ordinator at Thistle Pictures ... working up to Production Manager at Film Headquarters ... and then Producer at Taxi Film Production (2003).

I relocated to Sydney late 2006 and worked for a direct response advertising agency for a year. In 2008/09, I worked mainly for an event and brand communications agency ABT (aka. Australian Business Theatre) with clients IBM and Optus and had the honour of producing "The Life and Times of Reg Grundy" a four part video series, which aired at his 85th birthday celebrations (with a guest list of Australian telelvison royalty).

For most of 2009, I was a freelance producer at post and production house imagesPOST. The highlight of that year was producing my first Tropfest entry for the 2010 festival, called
"Ipso Facto", co-directed by Damian Fitzgerald (now at Goodby Silverstein & Partners) and Matt Heck of Three Drunk Monkeys. The entry made the shortlist (60 entries out of 1000). It has recently won Best Film at the 2011 Laughtrack Comedy Festival in Denver, Colorado (part of Festivus Film Festival, Denver’s premiere event for independent filmmakers).
