Available to hire
I am a Cape Town-based marine scientist, underwater photographer and videographer with hands-on experience in whale watching operations, expedition support and social media content creation.
I specialize in capturing underwater footage, managing social media for dive and charter operations, and producing educational outreach visuals. I am proficient with Sony cameras and DaVinci Resolve, looking to apply practical field experience to conservation and media projects.
