My BA(Hons) in theatre design was at Nottingham Trent University. In the years following I worked as a scenic artist at Nottingham Playhouse and Derby Playhouse. Amongst others I also regularly designed for Theatre in Education company Roundabout in Nottingham, and for Young Perspectives, a part of New Perspectives theatre company in Mansfield. When I moved to London for my MA I continued to design for Theatre in education, primarily with GYPT (Greenwich and Lewisham Young Peoples Theatre Company).
I also worked regularly with Half Moon Young peoples Theatre Company as well as taking the lead artist role on several projects with Emergency Exit Arts. Heading back to Dorset I have designed for Bournemouth T.I.E, Surya Arts, State of Play, DatCo, Wimborne Community Theatre and I am now proudly working with Gobbledegook Theatre on an outdoor piece called 'Cloudscapes' we made for the Inside Out Festival in September 2016 and to tour for the next 2 years at least.
I am a hands on designer. I've worked in most departments including stage management, follow spot operator, props and wardrobe. I believe in theatre for everyone. I approach design with simplicity in mind, design to fuel the imagination. I'm a good collaborator and I enjoy being part of a team, as well as working independently.
