For as long as I can remember, I have been passionate about the arts. Whether I am going to the theatre, art galleries or dipping my toes in various artistic mediums and creating my own work. This is what I live and strive to do, making a living out of something I love most.
I started off making life casts for family and friends for fun and then went on to join the Character Creation course at University of Hertfordshire, enhancing my skills and learning about prop making and SFX make-up. Since then I have been working for a variety of prop making companies ranging from projects for Harrods, Selfridges, and Nike to short films to big blockbuster movies such as 47 Ronin and Blade Runner 2049.
As I got more exposure to the world of film and TV I began to develop an interest in art directing and want to expand my career beyond the prop department. I have had some fantastic opportunities to test out my abilities in this area, such as my art directing role on ‘Pop Sludge’, a pilot production for Channel 4, The Box. Here I excelled at ordering and organising props and costumes on a tight budget and short time frame and dressing sets for the whole production. I also worked as a production designer on ‘The Vegetable Crushers’, a short film by Paul Herbert.
I am looking to build on these experiences and combine them with my extensive knowledge of the prop department to advance my career as an Art Director in film and TV.
