TELEVISION PRESENTING

I'm a host on all four seasons of Get Arty, which screened on Channel 7 in Australia and on Foxtel's Discovery Kids across South East Asia. I pitched and presented how-to segments for the show, including how-to: paint friend's faces to look like alien lizard people, draw ballerhinos (that's a ballet dancing rhino), and turn soy sauce containers into earrings (recycling but make it farrrshion).
