He is a member of the South African Guild of Editors and has been awarded the right by the guild to use the SAGE acronym alongside his name in honour of his contribution to the industry. He was the first colourist in South Africa to be awarded the acronym.
He previously sat on the SAFTA (South African Film and Television Awards) judging panel for the technical categories (editing, cinematography, composition, and score).
