Crew:
I trained in Costume Design at The Wimbledon School Of Art in London, I have subsequently enjoyed an extensive international career in the costume industry. I have designed and supervised productions in the USA, Canada, India, Israel, Spain, Monaco, France, Germany, Belgium, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and throughout the UK.
During my career I have successfully undertaken a range of costume roles covering a wide variety of productions, including opera, ballet, contemporary dance, musical theatre, period and contemporary drama, mass participation events, film and television. I have worked with many internationally recognised, prestigious companies including The Royal National Theatre, The National Youth Theatre, Warner Bros Entertainment, Fremantle Media and the BBC.
This diverse, international experience has enabled me to develop a vast knowledge of the field of costume and a broad understanding of the performing arts industry throughout the world. My direct exposure to differing cultural influences and practices has not only enhanced my costume design and realisation skills but has also equipped me with the ability to adapt to new environments and challenging circumstances with ease and confidence.
I believe that I am a valuable asset to any production, able to bring the benefit of my rich and varied knowledge and experience, alongside a lifelong passion for costume and the performing arts to the production team. Committed and hardworking with strong creative, practical and organisational skills, I have the drive, energy and enthusiasm required to excel in the roles that I undertake in the costume industry.
