About me
I started working with Hull Truck when the mission statement was “Making the cultural popular; making the popular cultural.” I believe in art from the lowest to the highest brow. I believe in its power to connect and change lives. I am at my happiest and most fulfilled when I am facilitating art, whether that is running a get in, cueing a show or sweeping a stage. It is why I am happy to fill roles from ASM to CSM and don’t get hung up on seniority. As long as I am part of it I am happy.Additional skills:
Emergency First Aid at work qualification
SMA Levels 1&2 Cueing to Music
RC-Annie Theatrical Handguns workshop
RC-Annie Intimacy and Violence workshop
RC-Annie Theatrical Weapons workshop

Qualified to drive up to and including 7.5ton vehicle
