About me
*I am now based in the midlands, but hopeful to be moving to a bigger city once theatres re-open to get back to work!*Since graduating from Rose Bruford in 2016 I have worked in a variety of theatre jobs.
I began my career working for Norwegian Cruise Line on their ships the Escape and the Epic, Wardrobe Supervising the shows After Midnight and Burn The Floor: Rebellion in the Ballroom.
After over a year at sea I decided to work back on land and was a dresser on 42nd Street at Theatre Royal Drury Lane. Whilst working here I took the show to the Olivier Awards and dressed the cast for their performance at The Royal Albert Hall.
The show closed in January 2019, when I opened a new musical, Club Tropicana as Wigs and Wardrobe Assistant. My knowledge of wigs was limited so I learnt on the job, and soon discovered I took to it very quickly and enjoyed it just as much as wardrobe.
Most recently I was Deputy Head of Wigs on the UK tour of Priscilla Queen of The Desert, which sadly closed due to Covid.
In addition, I have skills in pattern cutting, garment construction, dyeing and breaking down, millinery, and costume supervision.
