Hi there, I am half and half alot of things Sth African origins, grew up in Melbourne but living in Sydney for about 7yrs. I am passionate about all things film and filmmaking I work as a doco director and editor and make films that have a social justice bent and work with disadvantaged youth and the homeless, yes I want to change the world. I am also into running, the beach which is why I live in Coogee, gym when i am in the mood to pump myself up. I also into personal development stuff but I also love a little hedonism. I often ride the wave between commercial and alternative, it all depends on my mood. I am complicated but simple soul !!

Would love to hear from other artists of all types, particularly other filmmakers, bring on the creatives...... "we imagine a world that can be rather than accept the one that is..... " Have started a filmmaking group here so check it out and join. Thanks for stopping by....
