Creative achievements: 

Since September 2009 I have been working with Roger Walker on my own Car Show. This project has required lots of networking and public relations. I successfully acquired a Mercedes Benz E500 Coupe (from Wellington Star Mercedes Benz) for filming, in addition to two privately owned Ferraris. We are currently working on getting the show aired on Television. The experience is proving to be invaluable.

 

Prior to this I wrote directed and edited a short horror movie. This experience taught me how to network and manage a large group of crew and actors at the same time. I acquired actors via a talent website, I then held Auditions. I also organised the crew, catering and locations. Managing the group was quite easy and was done via Text and Email.
