I have gained experience in a wide varitey of roles and I am able to quickly and effectivly take on a new challenge. I work well within a team, however, I can take charge when needed. I am interesting in working on lots of different projects from theatre and film to exhibitions and window displays.
Additional skills:
• Training in First Aid, Health and Safety and Manual Handling.
• Organisational skills and an ability to work under pressure and to a deadline.
• Ability to take charge when needed, shown through the leading and organisation of a scenic art/ props team and workshop when completing work for shows.
• An understanding of onstage work, through a background of dancing on the stage.
• Disciplined and dedicated, expressed through achieving grade 8 alto saxophone.
• Good team member and ability to work with others, this has been essential when working as part of a production team at RADA.
