I am a full-house non-binary creative who specializes in the engineer room of creative production, turning high volumes into shipped work without the chaos. My approach was forged in high‑pressure industrial production where details are non‑negotiable and in international touring where the switch from Plan A to Plan B must be seamless. I’ve learned that the show only happens when the systems behind the scenes are bulletproof, but the story telling and true emotion remain the focal point. My time working in community‑driven environments shaped my decolonial beliefs in building workplaces where everyone feels seen and supported, empowering the team to produce work they’re proud to put on their CVs. I lead from the front, I get my hands dirty, and I learn the specifics of every team member’s role so I can provide real support when extra help is needed and brief with technical precision for an optimized turnaround. Whether managing a R600k activation across 40 schools or overseeing weekly production of 150,000+ brand assets, I spot friction points and fix them before deadlines, serving as the bridge between high‑volume output and creative vision.
