Professional Summary

Ten years of telling stories on camera.

Content Production Manager with a background in broadcast journalism, commercial filmmaking and Web3 media. Over the past decade I've worked across television, live events, commercial productions and digital-first media — from helping build a crypto media agency to founding Sol Studios.

I'm also a full-time trader. The discipline, risk management and calm-under-pressure mindset that trading demands is the same approach I bring to every shoot, budget and client delivery.

Rooms, sets & the people in them.

Every person pictured here is someone I've personally shot with — photography, videography or both. From Roger Ver and Cardano CEO Charles Hoskinson, to MoonPay CEO Ivan Soto-Wright, Mario Nawfal, Carl the Moon and an interview with the 1inch CEO. These are my sets, not conference selfies.

My Story

From Newsroom to Set

How I Got Into Filmmaking

I started in journalism where I realised I was drawn to telling stories visually. Journalism taught me how to understand people and communicate ideas. That naturally led me into filmmaking.

Why Trading?

I discovered crypto in 2020 and became fascinated by blockchain, markets and money. Trading became the natural progression and continues to challenge me every day.

Why Storytelling?

At the core of everything I do is a simple goal: tell stories that matter. Whether it is a brand film, an interview or a documentary moment, I focus on people first.

Why I Create Content

I enjoy telling other people's stories in the hope that someone learns, grows or benefits from them.
