Raised in Guildford, western Sydney and from early teenage years had an ambition to work in the media.
Did work experience as a 15 year old at Mason Stewart publishing in Darlinghurst, Sydney. Spent two weeks with editors of Australian Cricket Magazine, Smash Hits and Playboy. I was taught the value of hard work and in order to have a career in this crowded market, I'd have to stand out from the crowd.
I bought a camera and started photographing musicians, sports people and actors, then submitted ideas and resumes to over 100 places.
Voya Rajic, Head of SBS Television Australia showed interest in my ideas and gave me a job once I finished high school.

Life in the 90'sI worked at SBS for seven years, starting as a tape librarian before becoming an editor then producer. For a few years carried a camera everywhere and this video shows a sample of my life at the time, something I decided to edit during New years 1997.
In 1998 was a features and segment producer at the Football World Cup in Paris. Where for the first time, I travelled outside of Australia. |

Interviews were at airports, hotels, wherever I could find the subjects.
