Simon Storey

Simon Storey

Simon is long time film buff who got his first degree: a Bachelor of Arts (Film Studies/History) at the beginning of 2016. He kindly requests that you don't hold this against him. After growing up in country Victoria he moved to Melbourne and has morphed into the smug, latte-sipping Melbournian that we all know and distrust. He spends his free time watching and writing about films or listening to podcasts while going for a walk. He even has a real job!
