THe HUMAN BEHIND THE ACRONYM.
Born in South Africa, based in Ireland, my path started with a high school GoPro and a fixation on freezing a moment in time. What began as filming surf and skate sessions evolved into a career that took me to Lesotho, Nigeria, and France. Proving that regardless of the border, a great commercial is a story with a heartbeat.
When I’m not on-set, I’m usually chasing an adrenaline fix or hiding out as a closet nerd over a complex board game. I’ve jumped out of planes and paddled into surf for years; I’m still not particularly good at any of it, but I’ve learned that good times come to those willing to get a little bruised.
I have a deep appreciation for any and all cookies, and while I’m a dog person by nature, I once smuggled a semi-wild cat across a national border. He turned out to be a legendary companion.
