About me

As a theatre design graduate I am passionate about visual and performing arts and I thrive in both practical and organisational roles.

I have over 3 years experience in the theatre industry including set design and construction, scenic painting, costume and prop making as well as stage management experience. I have also worked as an architectural model maker, combining computer aided design work with practical hands-on craft skills to deliver accurate scale models for one of the UK's leading architectural practices.

Much of the theatre work I have been involved with has been community based.

As well has being highly creative and naturally confident in a wide range of arts and crafts disciplines, I am also a good organiser and a real team player.

In my theatrical capacity I have worked as designer, stage manager and wardrobe mistress (in one case all on the same production), all roles that have required a certain degree of co-ordination, delegation and diplomacy. This provided me with opportunity to work and liaise with people from a wide range of backgrounds from young children, experienced artists, and students to actors, technicians, writers and executive staff.

Outside of work I enjoy pushing myself creatively and spend much of my time designing and making various craft pieces, including cards, paintings, jewellery, and bags to give either as gifts or to sell at markets and craft stalls. I am passionate about arts and crafts and thoroughly enjoy passing my knowledge and enthusiasm on to others.
