23+ years bringing cinematic visual effects to life across feature film, television, advertising, and gaming. Specializing in lighting, CG supervision, and technical direction

​

 My journey into 3D animation and visual effects began after watching *Toy Story* in 1997. Starting a degree in Computer Science and formal training in 3D Animation, I started my career in 2002 and have since worked across feature films, commercial advertising, broadcast TV, and games.

Over two decades in visual effects, I’ve held roles ranging from Generalist, Animator, and PreViz Artist to Lighting Lead, CG Supervisor, and VFX Supervisor. My passion for lighting developed on-set through reference photography, leading to a career focused on crafting cinematic atmospheres, mood, and visual storytelling. Currently, I serve as Lead Lighting TD at Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) in Sydney
