I have been involved in the Media Workshop since 1984 when I had assistance in producing an exhibition highlighting the local Chinese Community.
I am pleased to have seen the Workshop grow from strength to strength over the years to what has become an excellent resource and support centre for various forms of visual media.

I enjoy working in black and white, which allows emphasis of texture, light and shadows.
Open Access at the Media Workshop gives me the opportunity to pursue this hobby and to meet other photographers. I have also benefited greatly from the advice and encouragement of the staff.

I went to Mount Pleasant Middle School and remember using the Media Workshop with my family.
Since then I’ve completed an MA at the University of Sussex. I’ve spent a year working in Indonesia coordinating various projects with is where I have taken most of my recent photographs.
