COMPOSITING
SUPERVISOR
& VFX
ARTIST

I'm a two-time VES Award-winning Compositing Supervisor at Wētā FX in Wellington, New Zealand. I oversee the integration of live-action, CG, and FX elements into the cohesive, story-driven imagery that defines some of cinema's most ambitious productions.

Since joining Wētā in 2012 on The Hobbit, I've led compositing on projects from the Avengers films to The Last of Us Season 2, winning VES Awards for Outstanding Compositing on both.

Before Wētā I worked as a Senior VFX Compositor at Pixomondo (with some Sequence Supervision), as a VFX Compositor at MPC, and as a Senior VFX Compositor at ARRI in Munich. I studied Media Design, Film & Animation at GSO Academy Nuremberg.
