This was the time I went into the big wide world on my own and never looked back.

I worked with various multimedia agencies mainly in the live events industry, before the opportunity to move to Singapore arose.

A baptism of fire into the live events industry, a stepping stone into the world of real multimedia. Here I cut my teeth on software like Macromind Video Works (yes that long ago!) and learnt a healthy understanding of absolute deadlines (what do you mean there's over 500 people out there waiting for the conference to start!)

Scrubbed up, wearing latex gloves & surgical greens then hanging around in operating theatres for hours on end, having jars containing body parts placed on your desk… appreciating that beauty really is only skin deep, all in all, an ordinary day at the office!
