About me
I've worked across the vibrant arts scene in London for over 20 years now. Starting in a fabrics showroom to managing box offices in West End, producing events for Soho members club and now resource managing props and costumes for a theatre in education company. It has been a very inspiring journey working in some fantastic arts & culture establishments in London such as Unicorn Theatre, Soho Theatre, Serpentine Gallery and the Design Museum. I'm interested to use 'arts for change' in these changing times, now is the time to develop new practices that address the environment, health, social gaps and bring in new ideas to help all in the future.
Projects
  • Let's get Jolly...!
    Let's get Jolly...!Jolly Hockey Sticks is about upcycling, using what we got, having a sense of humour in these challenging times. I don't want to mention that C word as it's no doubt we're all pretty over it, but the damm thing persist. I do believe that simply wearing masks or face coverings in public limits the rate of transmission of everything, not only C but bad breath and spittle! Jolly Hockey Sticks is aiming to keep comedy and creativity growing strong so we can adapt and evolve. This is not forever...ju
