    Performance Design and PracticeCentral Saint Martin School Of Art and Design
     - London, United Kingdom
    After completing a Foundation Course in Art and Design at CSM in 2010, I found a passion and interest in performance. My BA in Performance Design and Practice enabled me to train in costume design, set design, experience design, lighting, prop making and a full creative understanding on how a performance event is structured. From this I have developed my career within arts based projects, event management and art producing.
