He originally started in graphic design in 1988 and was involved in desktop publishing and designing computer system interfaces until his introduction to the web in 1994. He started his own web design business in 1996 and extended his portfolio into multimedia in 1997.

He moved to Holland in 1999 to gain additional international experience with clients from all over Europe and the United States finally moving back to Australia in 2004.
