About me

TV Locations Assistant with a strong background in Event Management, and Stage Management, roles which have equipped me with great skills in organisation, planning, scheduling, and team work. Working within TV, theatre and on cruise ships, I am used to working long days with few or no days off and feel I've demonstrated a strong work ethic. My transition from theatre/events to TV has been recent, but is an industry I've thoroughly loved and thrived in and am keen to continue such work within Locations, taking on as much responsibility as possible. Working in various countries around the world including Vietnam and India, I demonstrate flexibility, adaptability and will relocate to wherever the work arises. I have certificates in First Aid, Fire Safety, Security Management, Lifeboat & Fast Boat Rescue, amongst several others and therefore feel I am a good all-rounder. Happy to expand upon my experience upon request.
