About

Full disclosure: I started out as an actor. But don’t let that stop you reading. You might even recognise me (though probably not) from a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it role on Neighbours as Dr Karl Kennedy’s drummer in his band, The Right Prescription.

As it turned out, waiting for auditions wasn’t really my thing. So I started making my own work — first in theatre, then film, and eventually across branded content, live performance and large-scale events. The more I created, the more I realised I was much happier behind the camera (or on the other side of the rehearsal room).

Since then, I’ve directed and produced work across stage and screen, from indie musicals and national campaigns to music videos and digital content. I’ve worked with a wide range of artists and clients, and I’m particularly passionate about telling stories that are bold, cheeky, and a little bit unexpected.

In 2024, I co-founded See You Sunday, an independent theatre company focused on ambitious new musical theatre. Our debut production, American Psycho – The Musical, opens in September 2025 at Melbourne’s Chapel Off Chapel.

I’m also co-chair of the Musical Theatre Independent Fringe Panel for the Green Room Awards, and I regularly tutor and direct actors at various tertiary institutions.

Let’s make something.
