About

I am a Canadian scenographer, collaborator and recent graduate of the Masters Stage Design program at DAMU in the Czech Republic. Currently I'm based in the North East of England, and am committed to developing my artistic practice both independently and within the theatre and film industries. I'm committed to gaining experience as a trainee within the Art Departments of High-End TV in the UK.

I have excellent organizational and communication skills, which allow me to relay information regularly and efficiently to the production team. I enjoy creative problem-solving, and able to easily convey my ideas visually and in detail.

Computer Programs: AutoCad, SketchUp, Microsoft suite. Other skills: script analysis and breakdowns. Costing, sourcing and buying. Costume & Prop construction.
