Standing on the Delphine Glacier in British Columbia, working my first feature, Alive, with producers Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy for Walt Disney Pictures, I knew I had landed my dream job. More than 30 nomadic years later, the love affair continues. Whether working on tent pole extravaganzas or small, intimate indie films, I still feel blessed to be a part of the magic.
I remain undaunted by remote locations, having survived everything from ice shields to deserts, mountains to prairies, and jungles both real and urban: my native Vancouver, London, Barcelona, Berlin, Prague, Dubai, Toronto, Chicago, Detroit, Washington (DC), and New York.
Genres also run the gamut: I have worked on family-friendly films; dramas, comedies, and dramatic comedies; a multitude of large-scale action-adventure films; a couple of sweeping westerns; and my time spent in the world of DC films. I think there was once a fantasy musical horror flick, too, but I can’t be certain. A complete list of my credits can be found on IMDB.
I have worked with many of Hollywood’s biggest stars (really) and with newcomers both young and adult. I have developed a knack for negotiating with difficult or conflicting personalities, and I excel at crisis management.
Though my preference is for international locations, I’m more than happy to work in Canada and the US. My home base is Gulf Islands, British Columbia.
I hold membership in film unions I.C.G./I.A.T.S.E. locals 600, 669/667.
