Life before film…

30 years as an artist and computer graphic designer. I started in the early 80’s on the initial MAC computer that could be a tool for graphic work, The Mac 128. From technical illustrations for Canadian Defence, to Illustrating central vacuum parts and fittings. The MAC provided me with a budding career. I branched out on my own as a self employed graphic artist in 1989 working with Vancouver designers to produce their visions, aka a production artist.

In the late 90’s the internet was growing and I ventured into big tech, assisting in setting up a digital telephone company. Ahead of the curve we were providing digital VoIP services.

In the early 2000’s I moved into a government position for the Science Council of British Columbia and the in-house Communications Artist.

Life in film…

In 2011, I ventured back out on my own looking for the next adventure for my life, that’s when I jumped in to film with both feet. It is where i stand now and will stay for the balance of my life.
