Highly motivated, creative and commercially aware with a strong desire to excel in the creative industry. Enthusiastic and hard working as evidenced by my successful employment record, I am ambitious with a desire to push myself constantly. Holding excellent people skills, particularly in customer service and team building, I consistently deliver a positive and creative attitude to all aspects of my work. I am charismatic and able to deal with any situation that may arise in a calm, efficient manner.
I am very passionate about the arts, music and culture, I enjoy writing about injustices that are pre-sent in modern day society such as issues like racism and feminism within the media. Both my degree and masters study challenged me to write creative pieces and reports, enabling me to become an ex-tremely skilled writer. From an early age I have had a passion for theatre and acting and I was a member of my local theatre from the age of 14. This gave me an excellent base knowledge of theatre which my degree and experience since has furthered dramatically. I am a dedicated entertainment professional accomplished in a number of aspects of theatre and performance. Trained as a singer (grade 5) and in piano (grade 2), I am diligent and timely with memorisation skills and willingness to accept coaching and direction. I also enjoy writing scripts and poems in my spare time, travelling to enrich the content of my creative pieces. I volunteered at Glastonbury festival for the past three consecutive years as part of the recycling team and at No Gloss Film Festival curating the screens and ensuring the event went to plan.
