Statement
I combine a love of theatre and comedy with a quick grasp of technology, a hands-on practicality and a strong understanding of light. Hard-working with an eagerness to learn, develop my skills and seek new challenges. Although primarily interested in lighting, I find versatility an essential mentality in theatre, and am used to working in all areas backstage at a production.
Currently occupied with relighting and stage management for tours.
