Seasonal Writer for The South Australian Footballer
​
My main passions includes video games, films and television shows. From the storytelling to the soundtrack, I enjoy all aspects of these media platforms. I also enjoy skateboarding, soccer and a wide genre of music. I'm currently *trying* to teach myself guitar, and expanding upon my DJing.
On the occasion I've also been talent for a few student projects including my own, and even a commercial funnily enough (I'm the one in the green button up shirt at the start of this) Now, talent in acting? Nah not me - but talent in taking the absolute piss out of myself, usually with no clue as to what I'm doing? - absolutely!
​
Oh speaking of taking the piss, in case you're wondering about the name - Chaotic Choctop/Chaoticchoctop - there's a funny story behind that. You see, every time I go to the cinema and get a choc top, no matter what, I always drop a bit on my t-shirt, my shoe or the floor.. (or all three let's be honest) No matter how careful I am! So naturally one day when I was sitting there in the cinema a thought occurred to me 'Why are choctops so chaotic for me to eat?' then the words Chaotic Choctop just ...kinda stuck in my head (I can never wear a white t-shirt to the cinema btw I'm not even kidding)
​
Anyway I think that's probably enough from me for now. Thanks again for dropping by, I do appreciate it!
