I make music video's and tea....

About Me

I'm currently a freelance music video director and producer and work full time as a camera technician. Check out my video's i have directed below! Well what can i say about me.. I love summer and being on the water more than anything. I've been waterskiing and wakeboarding since i was ten, i use to compete but unfortunately don't have the time to keep up to competition levels anymore. I love going out and dancing the night away to some good old funk classics! I'm still a big kid at heart, i like to do crazy things like being towed behind a car on a skateboard back to the future style! I love all other types of outdoor sports like surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding and climbing. I also film gigs and extreme sports for tv. Apart from that i would describe myself as a highly driven laid back person : )
