About

I'm a well travelled and experienced professional, with work experience around New Zealand and abroad.

I'm currently studying towards a degree in Creative Technologies at AUT in Auckland, New Zealand, and working part time as an Event Technician.

Currently my skills are developing towards the creation of intellegent robotic devices, using both engineering and programming knowledge.

Fabrication & Rigging

Making stuff and hanging stuff

Through years of problem solving, observation and practice I have skills working with many materials, including Steel, Wood, cable and plastics

With lots of experience as a rigger for the events industry, I am accoustimed to finding safe solutions to diverse problems

I have recently been using a lot of computer aided design and fabrication, using CNC mills, Laser cutters and 3d Printing to make precise designs a reality.

Electronics

Sparks and signals

With a strong technical background, I have experience with currents ranging from milliamps into the hundreds of amps, working with both power distribution and signal distribution

I have a fairly good understanding of how equipment works, and am able to undertake some troubleshooting and repair work.

Developing my skills with microcontrollers more, I am increasingly designing and building circuits which match my needs.

Photography & Video

Capturing the moment

Although relatively new to photography, I have a broad and developing understanding of the requirements of professional standard video/photo work

Currently equiped with a Nikon D80, I am working on creating a selection of programmable, motorised dollys and tracks.

Event work

Making the moment

With over 7 years of experience as a Lighting/Sound/AV technician, I have a huge range of skills.

I'm capable of looking after events of any scale or complexity and have experience with most equipment currently available, This year has seen a major shift from analog to digital video, which is providing great opportunities with the extra quality available

This year I am doing a lot more crew leading and project planning. looking after clients needs from conception to execution.
