Invercargill born
Upon leaving school I completed a 3 year diploma course on Visual Communication and Design at the Wellington Polytechnic, then 18 months at Southland Community College as an Arts Technician, leaving to take on a role as a scenic artist at TVNZ Dunedin, 6 years later relocating to Auckland for the next 4 years. I left TVNZ to work for the Party Productions Company before deciding to return to Invercargill.
I have since been self employed doing a number of different jobs.
