About me
I am a recent dance graduate from Arts University Bournemouth. However, whilst studying dance I have found a strong passion for marketing, media and producing/coordinating events. I think I am an adaptable, polite and confident individual with a strive to excel in all I do. Whilst also at university I spent a lot of my free time creating short films with my peers. This gave me a chance to develop film making and editing skills that also helped me to explore and alternative creative output and is now something I enjoy as a hobby!
Projects

Based around self-expression through an art-form and libraries becoming more than just the expected, this piece showcases contemporary choreography with a theatrical edge. This project brings together stylised choreography, an upbeat sound-score, costuming, make-up, spoken word and a commercial style of cinematography to create a characterised and bespoke piece.

Similarly, I am responsible for the online review platforms for the establishment (trip advisor, facebook , google reviews) and ensuring our online ratings stay at a constantly improving level. This includes motivating the team to strive for good customer reviews at all times. I have also worked to achieve my gin specialist qualification, passing with 100%, meaning I can lead gin masterclasses for customers.
