About

I'm a hands‑on founder based on the Sunshine Coast. I split my time between writing code and being on‑site with our team — hanging LED panels, tuning audio, and making sure the tech disappears behind a seamless guest experience.

At VenueVue, I lead product and engineering. We design and run a platform for digital signage, LED video walls, IPTV, and venue automation — with an obsessive focus on reliability because our customers run live venues where things just have to work.

Before VenueVue I taught myself to code to solve practical problems on installs. That maker streak still shows up in how we build: simple, observable systems that are easy to fix at 1am after a big game or a live show.
