About Me
Growing up as an expat kid means being adaptable, open to adventure, and taking every opportunity that comes your way.
My passport will tell you that I was born in Australia, although the stamps and visas inside the pages will take you through my childhood in Macau, Hong Kong, and Kuala Lumpur. Fed on a mixture of British education, American TV, and Asian culture, I grew up to be a global story seeker interested in finding the humor in cultural and generational divides.
I've spent the last decade working in Film and Television in Toronto and Los Angeles, and recently became a US citizen.

I believe that stories are the connective tissue that bind the world together.

ProducingAs a freelance producer who has worked across mediums, and with a range of budgets, my goal is to create a safe, fun, and collaborative environment for talent and the brands I work with. Executing marketing briefs to achieve the right story and vision for clients, while pulling in the best possible crew and post-production houses, I strive to deliver the best quality of work possible.

Writing
I am a writer who likes to play across genres and formats. My entry point is always through character, and I'm drawn particularly to fish-out-of-water stories that take readers and viewers on a wild ride.
