About

It all started in my last year of high school when I made a paper animation about a rock man heroically rescuing his kidnapped girlfriend from the Monopoly Man. Fast forward to the end of that year and I had accepted a scholarship to business school.

After nearly a decade of working as an analyst in corporate finance I realised I needed to get back to doing what I loved. Fast forward another 12 years and here I am—grateful to have made the switch.

I feel very lucky to have brought to life beautiful award-winning projects with top tier clients, collaborated with SO many talented folks, and that I still love the process of creating something just as much as I did back in high school.
