The magic of movies always captivated me. Stories unfolding on the big screen sparked a desire to tell my own. It wasn't just Hollywood blockbusters, but the everyday stories around me that begged to be captured. This curiosity led me to the 15th Pune International Film Festival, where the world of filmmaking truly came alive.
Fuelled by this newfound passion, I enrolled in a film foundation program. Here, alongside fellow dreamers, I started creating – student films, documentaries, even a YouTube video that went viral! This experience ignited a fire, and I knew I needed to learn more.
So, I took a leap and headed "down under" to pursue a Master's in Creative Practice (Screen Arts) at Curtin University. It was there that the technical side of filmmaking unfolded. I mastered camera operations, lighting techniques, and editing software, transforming raw footage into stories.
But storytelling goes beyond visuals. Producing a student documentary opened my eyes to the importance of crafting a narrative, from planning to execution. My unique background in computer science surprisingly came in handy – my analytical mind thrived in the organized world of film production.
As a 1st AD on student project and a crew member in lighting team for Noongar Dandjoo Season 10, I discovered the joy of collaboration. Working with like-minded individuals fueled my creativity and pushed me to learn even mo
This journey wasn't just about acquiring skills; it was about discovering a passion. While my path has taken a different turn, the lessons learned and the stories created will forever be a part of who I am. And who knows, maybe someday my love for visual storytelling will take another exciting turn!
My love for games started in earnest during my engineering days. Alongside my team GRIFFINS, I competed in collegiate Counter-Strike 1.6 tournaments, fostering a deep appreciation for the intricacies of gameplay. This passion translated into a career in Quality Assurance (QA), where I joined Ubisoft and honed my skills by testing and contributing to three titles.
Continuing this path, I found myself at iXie Gaming within Indium Software. There, I thrived in a collaborative environment, working with industry leaders like Hi-Rez and Kabam. Currently, I’m proud to be part of the Pixelynx team. Throughout my QA career, I’ve had the privilege of contributing to numerous successful gaming projects that have garnered positive reception.
