About me

As a Costume Designer and Assistant I have great resilience and stamina, which is needed to with stand the long working hours, needed of my role. I do not crumble under pressure from tight schedules. I am calm, professional, positive and resourceful, with the ability to influence and resolve differences in professional opinions to avoid conflict. I am adaptable with both teamwork and working alone. I am confidant with the construction of garments, which supports me when left to work individually. But also I thrive operating in a team as I can bounce off ideas and also absorb what others bring to the table. Making costumes for both theatre and film has given me a critical eye with construction. I am confident in pattern cutting, sewing techniques and how to use domestic and industrial sewing machines and also over locking machines. As well as garment cleaning, storing and maintenance.

I am passionately committed to designing and enthusiastic beyond words for my future with in costume design. I also have a full UK driving License and can travel to work all over the UK.
