I joined NZIFF after completing a degree in Marketing and Art History. I have spent copious amounts of time at film, art, and music festivals as they’re such exciting events to be a part of! I love films that have beautiful imagery, a powerful soundtrack, an insight into the lives of inspirational people, and a clever or unusual narrative that keeps me guessing.
