"Research is key and I have a keen eye for detail -
it's essential in ensuring accuracy in historical work as
well as contemporary relevance."
"My training and experience have afforded me many
of the practical skills involved in fabrication of both
sets and costumes and I enjoy a hands-on approach.
This allows me to establish a positive rapport with technicians
and production crew as well as the director and performers.
These working relationships are always important in the
smooth running of a project."
