Statement
Experienced designer/maker and recent theatre arts graduate. In 2002 I founded my own clothing company, specialising in alternative menswear and custom designs. I produced outfits for musicians, street performers, as well as a range of everyday wear. I am now looking to be part of a team and hope to produce works for theatre and film.

Strengths

Having spent a number of years self-employed I am used to working under pressure and to tight deadlines. I am also used to communicating with customers, both at events and also working with individuals to produce specific designs.

Skills

- Working with fabrics

- Clothing design and manufacture

- Pattern cutting

- Working on large scale set and sculptural pieces
