About
Organised and highly motivated Trainee with an interest in a range of areas of the Art Department. With the ability to think outside the box, I enjoy a challenge and paticularly thrive in a practical, hands-on environment. Growing up with a hearing loss I have found myself drawn to visuals of Television, Film and Theatre, lending to my keen eye for detail and interest in design as well as my passion for creating inclusive environments and reflecting these on screen.
Flexible to work anywhere in mainland UK, with bases in Devon, South Wales, the North West, and London.
Currently have a provisional drivers licence with the ability to access funding for transport or a driver on medical grounds.
Fully up-to-date Covid training certifications and have a Level 2 Food Safety and Hygiene certificiation.
