About
I think of myself as part technician, part artist, and I've always been drawn to cinema, photography and technology.
I spent the first part of my career in IT, as a developer, tester and technical support agent. In the evenings I taught myself computer graphics and visual effects, and in 2017 I made the move into the entertainment industry. Since then I've worked on effects for feature films, TV series, theme-park rides and commercials, at studios including Cinesite.
Away from the simulations I take photographs. You can see some of them on the photography page.
