StatementI having been working in the creation of puppetry during my final year at UCA, with a particular focus on stage puppets. I have loved working with with a variety of puppetry styles including cable controlled puppetry. I focused on cable controlled puppetry in my final project "The Caterbird". During my time at university I have learnt a wide variety of skills that could be applied to both puppetry and prop creation.

Strengths
