One of the roles gave him the distinction of being victim to Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor) in the "infamous Drool scene" (as named by Xena fans) from the episode, In Sickness and In Hell.

In 2005 he appeared in New Zealand's medical soap opera Shortland Street as nurse 'Liam Todd', caregiver to Dr. Chris Warner's twin sister, Amanda Warner (Marissa Stott).

Directing career

He is also an award-winning short-film maker. His first short The Hit, (made for $95) went on to immediately win several awards and was purchased by The Rialto Channel. His second film, Mrs Bracegirdle's Woodlyn Park Adventure (made for $450) was only submitted to one festival where it earned another "Most promising film maker award". His next short film, The Heist was also purchased by The Rialto Channel, and has screened in several festivals across Europe.
