I’ve always been fascinated by the stories behind the things people think they already know.

For more than two decades I’ve worked as a producer, shooter and editor, creating original films for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and independent audiences online. My work spans documentaries, feature stories and long-form productions, with a focus on music, film, technology and Australian cultural history.

Alongside my documentary work, I’m the creator of Wax Audio, a long-running creative project that reimagines iconic songs through original music mashups. What began as an experiment has grown into a globally recognised body of work, reaching audiences of tens of millions.

Whether I’m making a documentary or a mashup, the motivation is the same: curiosity. I enjoy finding stories that surprise people, connecting ideas in unexpected ways and creating work that encourages audiences to see familiar subjects from a different perspective.

This website is a collection of those projects. Thanks for taking the time to explore them.
