About
I’ve always had a creative interest in Art and Photography and was especially interested in being behind the scenes and working in TV or Film. So when I was a student I went on to study Media Production, Film and Photographic Arts. I was never quite sure how to get into the TV & Film business, as it’s one of those "who you know" type industries. I decided upon a career in Accountancy after a year backpacking around Australia, where I subsequently had plenty of time to decide on what I would do next. I’ve been working in Accountancy since 2004, starting in practice studying the 1st year of ACCA and saw the Production Guild APATS course advertised online and knew that it was the perfect career choice for me... Having successfully completed the course in 2016 I am now working in the industry and looking to gain valuable experience in different shows going forward.
