Early life

Winter was born on 2 November 1989, in Mount Gambier, South Australia, before moving to Brasilia and London due to his father's work commitments. Winter attended school at Pembroke College in Adelaide,[1] before moving to the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. Before his career in television, Winter was a competitive road and track cyclist. During his short career, Winter won a national championship with now professional cyclist Jack Bobridge and also represented Australia at the Youth Olympic Games.[2]

Career

2008–2014: Television Career

Winter started his television career at the age of 20, working as an intern news reporter at Channel Nine News. Under the guidance of more experienced journalists, including anchorwoman Eva Milic, Winter continued to learn the trade before successfully auditioning to be a guest host for the Australian wide music television series Hit List TV, which is broadcast on Network Ten and, in country areas, Southern Cross Ten.[3]

2014–present: Move to YouTube

Winter started his YouTube channel in 2014, primarily teaching his photography and cinematography knowledge that he learnt during his television career. As of January 2020, Winter has over 500,000 subscribers on YouTube and has had over 47 million views.[4]
