I'm a multidisciplinary designer and multimedia professional with hands-on experience in lighting, cinema, dance, and digital media production. My background spans live events and technical theatre at venues such as The Royal Albert Hall, The Savoy, The Old Vic, and The Lyric, with a strong emphasis on lighting, projection, video design, and production support. I aim to blend artistic vision with technical precision to create engaging, functional experiences that resonate with audiences. Beyond my production roles, I collaborate on projects that bridge creative and technical disciplines, bringing a holistic approach, ethical sensitivity, and problem-solving focus to every stage. I value verbal and visual communication, leadership, and teamwork, and I continually expand my toolkit with software and tools across design, 3D modeling, and video production to transform ideas into immersive results.
