SKILLS
My objective is to create engaging written media.
OBJECTIVE
I graduated from the Vancouver Film School for Writing for Film and TV in 2006. Since then, I have continued to write, produce and direct my own movies while submitting them to festivals around the world.
Aside from film making, I have transitioned to content creation for various publications. I write for a locally based Arts and Culture magazine in London, Ontario called LondonFuse. In 2014, I traveled to Chiang Mai, Thailand to work for a publishing company called Citylife where I had several of my articles published in their magazine.
My passion for writing lead me to Fiji in 2015 where I wrote for Mai Life magazine. While there, I traveled to Samoa, dozens of islands around Fiji and even to a series of cannibal caves in order to write about my experiences. Ultimately, I had my works published in two different magazines, Mai Life and FijiTime, the latter being the Fiji Airways in flight magazine.
The written word is where I hang my hat. I'd love to be given the opportunity to use my passion for written media to help your company.
