Larry started his career before he hit the double digits, providing voice overs for "Radio Disney". In high school he set up his first business, a web and graphic design company.

Over the 15 years since its launch, he launched sister sites like "The Iris" and "Hello Asia!", started a digital radio network, and published four books - all under the banner of his company Heath Media. As Larry was part of the team that launched the Sydney Fringe Festival, and worked to oversee digital strategy for a number of arts businesses in Sydney, the business expanded into events. His company Heath Media now oversees the annual Seymour Nights events in Sydney, and Larry is the Founding Director of the National Live Music Awards, which started in 2016. The 6th event was held in October 2023. In January, 2020, he was named Associate Producer for Sounds Australia, where he and the team support exporting Australian artists & industry around the world.
