About me
My passion is music and I really enjoy working within this industry. I have been around different parts of the music industry from radio presenting and producing, to working with a dance record label and high profile artists and VIP’s. Most recently I have been working with a corporate event company, providing Audio Visual assistance to clients such as ‘The Royal Opera House’ and ‘Science Museum’ to name but a few. I have recently worked with the Queen sending her first tweet at the Science Museum and also Prince Charles opening up new Exhibition space. I have also been involved with a tour of the South of England as head technician with a 6 person cast performing a show called “Clockwork” which is theatre based. For 3 years I was a freelance Sound Engineer at a venue in London called Scala (Pentonville Rd, London). I have really enjoyed working with such an array of brilliant and different artists but I want to move on to bigger and better things within this industry. I am extremely hard working and very determined to create the best work I can and strive to ensure that clients are happy with the quality of my work.
Work history

    My role within Event TSL covers all round AV solutions for roadshows events and installations. Booking and assisting freelancers on daily roadshow events has been my primary role within the company, however more administrative tasks like quoting venues and clients for various set packages and equipment hire, sending invoices and arranging transport and local crew have also played a part. Researching and pricing AV for installation projects has also been required of me, helping me gain knowledge of the emerging technologies in the marketplace.
