He was born in Sydney and attended high school at Barker College, an independent school in Hornsby, a North Shore suburb of Sydney. He is a graduate of Sydney's Macquarie University (Bachelor of Media) in 2002, The Australian Film Television and Radio School (Master of Arts in Directing) in 2004 and of Brown University where he was awarded a doctorate (Modern Culture and Media) in 2007.

In April 2008 he directed and animated the short film Beached Whale (performed by his high school friends Anthony MacFarlane and Nick Boshier[3]), which became a popular social media video in Australia and New Zealand.
In 2009 he founded the creative think-tank company The Handsomity Institute Pty Ltd which created and produced the television series Beached Az, airing in September of that year on ABC.
