About Me
I am a props buyer, set dresser and props master. I also style interiors for clients based in Melbourne.
I studied Craft Design in Nelson, New Zealand, then jumped into the film industry after creating the world's most comfortable undies, Thunderpants [see thunderpants.co.nz].
Been creating sets, buying props, and styling houses for over 15 years. Love my job, love to shop, and love to create stylish interiors and vegetable gardens.
