biography

Life-long local, Blue Mountains based musician, drone pilot, and photographer. I got my start performing violin at a very young age, and have performed in both solo and group settings many times over the years. From the Sydney Opera House in a youth orchestra, to the streets of Katoomba, I've always gotten a special joy out of bringing music to others, and entertaining. I've also recently found the pleasure in recording music, with my violin featuring on multiple releases by local musician Wolf van Der Made (Springtime in the Mountains, Going to the Western Shore, She Likes Pain), the soundtrack to the short film Shattered Mural (2021), among other projects small and large. As much as I've enjoyed entertaining and being on stage, I've also developed a special love for being behind the scenes and documenting moments through a camera lens (whether that lens be on the ground, or in the air!). I have become a CASA certified drone pilot, and I hold a current Remote Operator's Certificate, Remote Pilot's License (sub-25kg), and Aeronautical Radio Operator Certificate. Whether I'm capturing the beauty of the mountains, the cosy homes perched upon their peaks, the action of automotive events, or the rawness of live music performances, I bring the same passion and energy to each project. Continuing my collaboration with Wolf van Der Made, I've had the pleasure of putting together various album covers for him (She Likes Pain, Ruin, Nature's Law), and look forward to any opportunities to document or collaborate with local artists.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NGURRA

The City of the Blue Mountains is located within the Ngurra (Country) of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples. MTNS MADE recognises that Dharug and Gundungurra Traditional Owners have a continuous and deep connection to their Country and that this is of great cultural significance to Aboriginal people, both locally and in the region. For Dharug and Gundungurra People, Ngurra takes in everything within the physical, cultural and spiritual landscape – landforms, waters, air, trees, rocks, plants, animals, foods, medicines, minerals, stories and special places. It includes cultural practice, kinship, knowledge, songs, stories and art, as well as spiritual beings, and people: past, present and future. Blue Mountains City Council pays respect to Elders past and present while recognising the strength, capacity and resilience of past and present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Blue Mountains region.
