About me
He Pākehā ahau. He Tangata Tiriti ahau.
I am Pākehā, a white New Zealander, my family is English and Scottish in heritage. I am gratefully in this country because of Te Tririti o Waitangi (also known as The Treaty of Waitangi).
I was born in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, and I acknowledge the Indigenous nations of this region, Te Ati Awa, Taranaki Whānui and Ngāti Toa Rangatira.
I work in the creative sector in Aotearoa New Zealand starting out backstage at BATS Theatre in 1990. I am best known for my lighting design work for theatre and dance.
In my formative years I worked with Red Mole, Magdalena Aotearoa, Taki Rua, and women's theatre such as 'Not Broadcast Quality'.
I am a trustee for Theatre Archives New Zealand (TANZ), Toi o Taraika Arts Wellington and Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand (WANZ).
