About Me

G'day 👋 I'm Neil. I'm an Electrical Engineer working in hardware and power systems. I love photography, particularly landscapes and portraits, when I am travelling — there's something special about capturing fleeting moments and the raw beauty of different places and people. Photography lets me slow down, observe the world more closely, and express creativity beyond engineering. Whether it's hiking up a mountain for sunrise or wandering through vibrant city streets, I'm always chasing light, perspective, and stories worth telling.
