bio

I am an ambitious, creative and versatile individual.

Part of my background lies in teaching, training, coaching and mentoring – from school level, to university level, to coaching professionals in the work environment – I professionally specialised in this field for a decade after I graduated.

The other part of my professional background lies in the media industry. I’ve worked in PR, marketing, copywriting, and branding, but I got swept up in the film and television aspect of the media industry after being awarded a full bursary for a wildlife filmmaking course in 2008. In 2009 I registered my Film & Television Production company, CatClawz Productions. Shortly thereafter I also signed up as a producer on the Discovery Network.
