Current Projects


Neko Nation
Currently working on the majority of the Australian wide tour for Neko Nation.  It's a bit dull at the moment, there's a lot of dealing with venues and just trying to get a gig sorted, it's so much harder juggling multiple events now, especially out of the state!

The tour is looking to be quite exciting once dates have been organised and fliers and postes are released online and in person.  We've got a lot of interest in applications from all over the place, (except from Sydney which we've sadly had to cancel, X.x).  The fans I have been able to talk to over the staff search has been awesome and I'm very excited not just to have awesome people working at the event, just the ability to meet lots of people who are awesome to talk to and would love to get involved in Neko Nation.

Overall an insane number of events are planned throughout the rest of the year, not just the regular Neko Nation events that have been put on as well.  It's a bit hard to keep my feet grounded and not run away with some of the uber exciting things I want to do and get planned though!  Plus I'm spending a lot of time settling into Adelaide and working on Tokyo Hardcore

Tokyo Hardcore
My newest project, I've joined up as a partner, investor, business advisor and accountant, my wonderful girlfriend Saccharine is taking the reigns and leading the vision for Tokyo Hardcore.

It's been an exciting ride, I've had a fair bit to learn about lolita and Japanese fashion and it's been one amazing ride which has taken me right to the all the stores, designers and owners in Japan.  It's been one hell of an experience and while there are some downs and tough parts about running any business, things such as trips to Japan does make it worth it.

My work is quite interesting, very technical and a lot of icky behind the scenes stuff.  My job has been to do all the legal, systems, accounting and advisory roles for the business, the stuff that people find insanely dull and absolutely hate when running a business but the stuff I live for and am qualified in.  It's a bit tricky since there's lot of new things to learn and things never ever go to plan, while running to very tough deadlines and budgets but I'm very excited about the first launch at AV-Con.


Also might be working on a new young entrepreneurs project with a very experienced entrepreneur who has run his own business' for decades, so this could be a very exciting thing to work on, more on this soon.  ^^
