About

Since my training in 2017, I have been fortunate to have contributed to some amazing crowd- room teams as well as a main team in addition to designing and organizing my own cast on short film productions. My background as a project coordinator and brand manager has enabled me to combine my love of creativity and character makeup with essential organisational, time management and administrative experience.


I work well individually as well as part of a team, helping out wherever I can and am keen to progress my career, ever learning from my piers and experiences. As a graduate of CBMA I’m trained in matching skin-tone, wigs and hair, SFX, prosthetics and more. I hold a full UK driver’s license, my own car and have completed ScreenSkills ‘Coronavirus awareness on production’ and ‘Addressing unconscious bias; basic awareness in the workplace’ training courses.
