My Journey
After 19 years with Creature Technology Co. finishing as CFO, a Melbourne-based global entertainment technology leader, I'm exploring new opportunities to apply my extensive financial leadership experience.
I grew with the company from Finance Officer to Chief Financial Officer, becoming the financial architect behind the creators of animatronic entertainment for major productions including Walking with Dinosaurs Arena Spectacular, Jurassic World Exhibition, and Universal Orlando's Skull Island: Reign of Kong.
My experience spans the full spectrum of CFO responsibilities - from traditional financial management to acting as interim GM, leading business transformations, and implementing enterprise-wide technology solutions.
