About me
I graduated from Rose Bruford College in June 2019, my course taught me a wide range of hand and machine sewing as well as pattern drafting on the flat and stand. Our course was focused on theatre so we learnt how to dress, make and supervise in a theatre environment as well as how to work with other departments. Since my degree I have worked with Whitechapel workhouse helping cut costumes for cruella, with Opera De Bauge in France working on three operas as a costume assistant. I also dressed on the nutcracker at the royal Albert hall and on Thriller Live in the west end before moving to the BBC to work on EastEnders.I am a hard working person who is quick to learn, I have enough independence to work on my own but can also work with others to share ideas and problem solve. I have learnt a lot but am always keen to experience more of the entertainment industry.

Crew:
I am graduating from Rose Bruford College after studying Costume production. I would live to work in TV and Film in the costume department. I favour an assistant or supervising role over making but I do have experience in both machine, domestic and industrial, and hand sewing skills. I also have experience in dressing, fittings and assistant duties.
