About me
I am creative and committed with strong skills in costume construction, alterations and repairs. I have gained valuable experience in fabric and costume maintenance and laundry from working in numerous professional Running Wardrobe departments for 10+ years. I am capable of producing high quality work within a limited time frame and work well under pressure. I keep detailed, clear, and up to date paperwork. Being a friendly, sociable person means I work well as part of a team but also have the ability to work independently as I can think quickly on my feet and take initiative. I have managed many other Wardrobe staff in the past and am calm and confident when giving directions. I have a positive, industrious manner and thrive on new challenges. Mainly I am a reliable and organised individual who works hard to achieve the highest standards.License & Passport
