About

Based in Northern Ireland, however I am able to travel for work if required. Recently began taking on the responsibilities of a Second Assistant, including radio micing and occasionally second booming. I have a great interest in radio mics and enjoy being involved and taking on any challenge that comes my way. I perform well in high pressure situations and I am always ready to adapt to new ones.
