About me
As a local union stagehand in Texas, I was taught that if the roadies were sweating then I wasn't working hard enough. Years later I joined Sesame Street Live! For three years, it was an "all hands on deck" experience as Assistant Carpenter and Head Loader. My duties were never limited to carpentry; since the overall look and safety of the show fell under the carpentry department. In short, Lighting, Sound, Props, Set, Wardrobe, and Loading Trucks were my responsibility, so it's safe to say that I work well under pressure. We did so much with so little that we could do anything with nothing. I moved to New York to get married and add another Collins to the family tree. As soon as the plane touched down I hit the ground running; working with IATSE local unions in NY and NJ, as well as gaining stage management experience and bringing that southern hospitality to every venue.Referees:
