About me

Who would have thought an Archaeologist would go from burrowing into the worlds past to delivering the cutting edge future

I started my career in UX Design back in 2016 after graduating. After a few years of delivering projects in the local government market I decided to take a leap of faith into the world of Production - an area where I felt my true passions lay.

Leaving it all behind, I became a Runner and over the next few years I quietly learned the ins and out of Production pipelines and the power of keeping clients satisfied through excellent customer service. I also ate a lot of Sainsbury's basic pasta. In my spare time I taught myself Colour Grading using Resolve and did a few jobs here and there. Around this time I also began shadowing Flame Op's and began my compositing/VFX journey.

To level up my skills, I undertook an MA in VFX Compositing with Escape Studios. In my time at Escape I learnt a great deal about the Post-Production pipeline from the technical and artistry standpoint. I was usually the Team Leader in our group assignments which lead my classmates to joke that I'd make a better Producer than a Compositor. I laughed too, until...

I actually became a Producer! Suddenly, I was delivering CGI animations and digital imagery to the worlds leading tech companies across the globe. I oversaw the creative direction, budgeting, planning, hiring, post-production and management of client accounts. My education and existing experience made this feel like a very natural transition for me and I was able to foster good internal and client-facing synergy.

In my most recent role, I took another leap to work on less traditional Post-Production work and branched into the exciting world of Digital and VR Production. I pushed myself to deliver my best work (so far!), including a 360 VR Immersive Experience, a cutting edge Digital AR App and a huge live-exhibition projection project.

I am always looking to work on exciting projects with great people and clients.
