Storyteller & technologist

I create media, community and systems to help good things grow.
A little about me
I'm Billy. A storyteller and technologist based at Mangaroa Farms, in Aotearoa New Zealand.
For the last decade I've been a freelance brand creative, mostly focused on video and photography. More recently I've been building with AI: content systems, automation, the unseen workflows that enable quality stories at scale.
Now I'm leading marketing and narrative at Mangaroa Farms, and co-founded BROS, a community project for the holistic wellbeing of men in Aotearoa.
Working across a diverse range of industries can feel quite disparate, but it's really just one thing: using story and technology in service of life, and trying to leave things more beautiful than I found them.
