Accomplishments

    Short Film at Collie Art Gallery:

    During my final year at Collie Senior High School, I wrote, directed, and starred in a short film that focused on suicide. I was awarded for this short film and it was chosen to be screened at the Collie Art Gallery for one week. This gave the public the opportunity to view my short film.


    House Captain:

    During my final year at Fairview Primary School, I was leader of my sporting house. This opportunity gave me the chance to display leadership skills, and teamwork skills.
