About me
After obtaining a Bachelors degree in Music, majoring in Audio from "The Australian Institute of Music" I wanted to be a recording Engineer. Somehow I found myself in an audio booth in a TV station and knew instantly that this is where I wanted to be.After almost ten years of Live Television in various roles from Audio Director to Multi Cam Television Director and Technical Director, I have been able to learn what it takes to make program changing decisions in the matter of milliseconds. I enjoy the lightning pace and short lived stress of Live TV, as well as the chance to do something completely different the next day with a new set of creative challenges and problems to solve with a great crew of people who are all there to make high quality television.
