About me
Got into theatre as a side step to film but enjoyed it so I stayed...for 15 years. Most of my time has been spent in lighting with a speciality in followspot operation, call, design, and training. I have held an assortment of other positions in production, stage and site management, as multi-disciplined crew and as a general all rounder working both indoors and out, on everything from small scale events and independent shows to large spectaculars.For something a little different, I am currently working with metal, wood and leather and am interested in opportunities to work with props/model makers, milliners, shoe makers, armorers and everyone in between.
Additional skills:
I am also a photographer, specialising in architectural, interiors and the abandoned but have also shot concerts, music festivals and theatre shows. I have some background in graphic design and I used to teach dance.
