About me
As a half Finnish, half Scottish multilingual writer and performer, my time management skills are one of my strongest suites. I have experience in organising funding for a theatre company I founded with four other performers in 2018 as well as finding a venue and writing a script for the show. This in many ways reflects the way I like to approach most creative ventures - with a hands-on approach with an emphasis on teamwork. Having such a varied experience in the theatre and film industry has only made me more empathetic towards different roles within the industry.Referees:
Available on request.
Additional information:
I would be eager to learn more about production work in film and TV. Positions such as production assistant and film or TV runner are of particular interest to me. I worked as a runner and assistant director during my masters degree and have been eager to learn more about these all-encompassing positions ever since.
