Summary
I'm a 19-year-old Brisbane-based emerging Cinematographer. I'm currently studying film full-time at SAE University College. I've always been fascinated by a camera's ability to capture action and emotion in a way that can impact an audience's thoughts and feelings—relishing the thrill and challenge of adapting and innovating with a team of like-minded and driven individuals to reach a shared goal. I am more than eager to expand my knowledge and experience as a cinematographer.
