About me
I am a graduate of Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, majoring in sound and minoring in stage management, but with an interest in aerial rigging, and basic training in construction, lighting, set and costume design.
My time in various educational establishments has developed in me a great love of all elements of technical theatre but most notably in sound. I have thoroughly enjoyed all opportunities I have had so far to gain experience in the field of sound for live performance.
My current place of employment has helped me to develop excellent time and people management skills, as well as the ability to work as a member of a team and independently.
Cirque Du Soleil was my biggest influence in choosing to enter the field of technical theatre and I hope to work for them someday.
