What is your proudest achievement while working at Imageworks?
I am very proud to join the Imageworks leadership team. It is currently week 4 so ask me again in a year or 2!

What inspired you to become involved in making movies?
Watching movies showcasing innovation in VFX through my childhood years and the growth in the market in the U.K. due to the HARRY POTTER franchise.  The timing was great for me right as I graduated from university.  It was an exciting time to be starting out in the industry.
