๐ฌ I specialise in shaping powerful documentary narratives into engaging stories.
With over 20 years in broadcast, publishing, and long-form media production, I help filmmakers, heritage organisations, and producers transform raw footage, interviews, and archival material into compelling, structured documentary narratives that engage audiences and honour the integrity of the story.
I hold two Master of Arts degrees in Media Production and Digital Publishing (Honours 2A) from Griffith Universityโs Queensland College of Arts and Griffith Film School โ grounding my work in both cinematic craft and narrative theory.
But credentials aside, my strength is this:
I donโt just edit footage.
I am an architect of documentary narrative.
