In addition, I studied Special Effects Make up and Prosthetics with Nori Honda in 2008. After a few years of work, in various roles, I attended South Sea's Film and Television School in 2012 under the guidance of Gerben Cath, Allie Simpson and Jenny Stark. From 2013 I worked as Boom Op, 2nd AC, Casting, 3rd AD, Locations PA and Locations Assist on a variety of projects from independent to mainstream. In 2015 I was diagnosed with a stage 2 Cancer and was forced to step back from work. During this time I have been writing and developing television, short film and feature scripts for future development. In 2017 I returned to work, focusing on Locations. In 2020 I started my first role as Location Scout/Manager of a Chinese/NZ series for Sky Television.
