Summary

With a background in teaching at The Melba Conservatorium of Music from 1997 to 2001, I have excelled in various fields, including production management, film editing, and videography. In recognition of my talents, I received the Creative and Vocational Student award from Melbourne Polytechnic in 2019. Currently, I am exploring the art of multilayered editing, merging visuals and sound to create stories with diverse interpretations. Additionally, I am actively involved in directing and writing short films, and currently working on a documentary. Driven by my passion for production, videography, and innovative editing techniques, as well as my commitment to community engagement, I aim to make a meaningful impact. Embracing a dynamic and forward-thinking approach, I constantly push boundaries in all my endeavors.

Professional with hands-on experience in collaborative environments, prepared to contribute to project success. Known for reliability and adaptability in meeting dynamic team needs. Exhibits strong organizational abilities and effective communication skills.
