I have spent a large portion of my professional career in education, but have always been involved in the various aspects of production of content. In the education field I had to train in all aspects of Sound engineering which often cross-sectioned with production and creation.

I am driven by interest in technology and the need to find solutions that best suit any particular scenario. I am process orientated and support the concept of structure within a creative environment as I believe it ensures positive outcomes in terms of creative requirements as well as timeline requirements. 

I have a life partner but no dependents.

As a hobby I write music, and understand creativity very well. I am also deeply involved in Theatre in Cape Town which has taught me that surrounding yourself with the right people will always make sure the job is done well.
