I bring over 25 years of professional multi-media experience across TV, film, radio, live & studio audio as well as crew & management on large-scale live events. As a producer, production manager, camera operator, video editor, sound engineer, band manager and stage-crew, as well as having worked as a floor manager on live productions in my earlier years, I understand live workflows - from anticipating cues and framing engaging shots to coordinating seamlessly with directors and technical teams. Having spent 3 years working as the Regional Africa Director for CBN based in USA and looking after operations in 13 African countries I’m also used to working remotely with international teams on different time zones. I’m highly self-motivated, technically adaptable, and genuinely excited by the opportunity to participate and contribute to remote event production. On a more personal note, although I live in South Africa, I am a Canadian citizen by birth and would love to connect my work passion with the country of my roots. Thank you for considering my application.
