About me
From leaving school until almost six years ago I worked in the construction industry in wide range of roles. I worked in a variety of settings from general handyman in mental health institutes to office maintenance. Since working in and pursuing a career in theatre, I've decided that this area is more suited to me. I have continued to develop relevant skills and experience in this area and I've now worked as local crew at receiving houses, stage crew in the West,technical ASM on a UK tour and the West End and currently as Technical Stage Manager on a European Dance tour.I have always found it easy to get on well with people both in the professional and social aspects that come with employment in this industry. I am relaxed, hard working and able to work as part of a structured team or independently if necessary.
My passions are reading, especially post modern American authors, which has inspired me to write myself at times. I enjoy cinema of all genres and I also enjoy spending time with my friends, some of which I met whilst traveling for long periods of time in India, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Fiji and Thailand.
Should any relevant vacancies become available please consider me for the position as I will become a dynamic and dedicated member of the team.
Additional skills:
I worked in the construction industry for many years and so have basic skills in most of the associated areas. I also have lots of theatre maintenance experience, as well as being involved in the problem solving of moving a show from venue to venue of a weekly touring.
