About

I’ve retrained in stage management following a successful career as a TV finance executive, including 8 years as finance director at the super-indie All3media and 3 years as Chief Financial Officer setting up the TV production company Expectation Entertainment. I bring a wide array of transferable skills to theatre including problem solving, proactivity, strong organisation and communication skills and working to deadlines in a faced paced environment. I am hardworking, reliable and a team player with the confidence and gravitas to take the lead whilst also being more than comfortable to be part of a team and be led. I’m friendly, upbeat, positive and have a can-do attitude. I especially love working with people and am calm and easy going. I’ve always loved working in the creative industries and I  really enjoy the creative process of theatre, especially being in the rehearsal room, seeing a show develop and forming strong bonds with the director, company and the creative and technical teams.
