About me

With three years experience in designing for both theatre and film, I have learnt to enjoy working under pressure and in stressful environments. I am capable of working in a team whilst being able to lead and offer opinions and direction. I enjoy taking on responsibilities and challenges and always think creatively and logically in trying to overcome work obstacles. My experience varies from designing to assisting, to supervising and making. I have been sewing for a decade and decided after I graduated to explore the possibilities of the costume industry in both film and theatre. My costume skills have since extended to scenic art, prop making and set dressing. My experience is practical and industry based and I'm currently applying for masters in costume/theatre design in order to solidify and improve my existing skill set.
