About

I am a HETV Hair and Makeup trainee, based in the South West. For the past four years I have gained knowledge and skills within prosthetics, hair, makeup and wig making/application. I began work experience on season two of Da Vinci’s Demons within the prosthetics department, and was subsequently employed for season three as a Prosthetic Assistant. I went on to work as a Second Assistant Wig and Makeup Artists for the Royal Shakespeare Company, until I relocated to the South West.
 I recently attended Bath Academy of Makeup to undertake a course to develop and refresh my skills further. In addition, I took part in a two-day wig making course with Carol Robinson to learn wig making and application techniques used outside of the theatre environment.

The culmination of experience working on set, within the theatre, and on a live televised show has given me the understanding and determination to pursue a career as a Hair and Makeup Artist within television and film

I have a full clean driving license and car and happy to travel. I am flexible, amenable and thrive working within a team and challenging enviroments
