About Me
I am an independent filmmaker, web developer and graphic designer, based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
I started in the communications field over 10 years ago, after graduation from Algonquin College's Television Broadcasting program. I have worked in the television, video production, graphic design, web design, multimedia, and audiovisual industries. I am currently employed in the Web Services team at the Department of National Defence. We are responsible for the DND/Canadian Forces website (www.forces.gc.ca).
In 2005, I completed my first short film, Lucky - or Not?. In addition to directing and producing, I also shot and edited the film. The film made its debut at the Ottawa Student and Independent Film Festival in March of 2005. The film is now available for purchase on DVD, and for free download on this site under a Creative Commons licence. I am currently developing several new film projects. I'm also a member of the SAW video co-op.
My other experience includes extensive work in event videography, including sports and wedding videos. I've also worked on several award-winning multimedia CD-ROMs (including Québec and l'Encyclopédie de l'inforoute). I was a founding partner in the independent music site, thesetunes.com (later thesetunes.ca). The site became a leading promoter of the independent music scene in Canada, staging many club shows in Montreal, and the FringeTunes Battle of the Bands at the Montreal Fringe Festival in 2001.
In my spare time, I like to keep fit by playing hockey, taking my girlfriend Hélène's yoga classes, and walking my dog Bear. I also love watching movies.
