About me

I have always been a creative yet systems-orientated person, fusing my worlds of writing and venue management. At the age of nineteen I became the Operations Manager of Greenside Venues at the Edinburgh Fringe and over 2 years we grew from one studio to a company with three sites across Edinburgh. I left the company in order to pursue an MA Writing Musicals at Mountview achieving a distinction, a course which not only gave me a rigorous insight into the collaborative process of creating theatre but also equipped me with an in-depth industry knowledge and a deep understanding of copyright and contracting. After my MA I developed a career in FOH Management in the West End working for ATG at both The Apollo Victoria and The Lyceum Theatre. I have since become the Theatre Administrator at The Lyceum Theatre, I work in the management team to co-ordinate HR, finance and events. As part of my role I have co-ordinated the introduction of new payroll software, acted as event planner for an international conference and I provide regular Duty management cover for The Lyceum Theatre.
