About

I tell stories on screens. I direct, design and write. I lead teams of talented people to solve problems and perform under pressure. I've been creating films, communications, entertainment and attention for brands internationally for 30 years. I take pride in what I make and find no joy in anything done half-hearted. I believe in graft and craft.
