I never set out to become a director or producer, per se \u2014 I just loved creating images and shooting. When I was a teenager, my parents traveled around Australia, writing books on the fascinating characters they came across. So, during that time, I sat in on hundreds of interviews, and was exposed to the beauty of the natural world. I think these years infused in me a curiosity for human stories, and the environment.<\/p>\n
