Biography
Almost 20 years in Aviation as an Aircraft Engineer covering all aspects of Rotorcraft (helicopters) and Fixed Wing (aeroplanes) I have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Physics, Mechanical Properties and a general understanding of the world around us.
I have a huge passion for New Zealand War History and War History in general, especially Aviation. Im also a qualified Digital Photographer and Videographer, which is put into practice in New Zealand's remote backcountry where i love to chase our game species and soak up nature in general.
I love to learn new things and be in a team environment, I thrive on interactions with like minded people! Im very much a peoples person but im more than comfortable working to a set task by myself.
This being my 2nd year training in this industry, im overwhelmed with excitement to where I may end up opportunity wise, and can't wait to meet more people who are living the dream of being involved in the industry.
Im super proud of what I have learnt and accomplished to date, especially my short film called 'Foreign Soil' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LktpDgBnNtg&t=12s&ab_channel=MercuryFX
