With over a decade of experience designing and building props for theatre, magicians, and short films, I bring a strong foundation in fabrication and creative problem-solving. Currently working at a Trainee/Junior level in TV and Film, I’m focused on developing my skills in Standby Props, with the long-term goal of becoming a Standby Art Director.My background as a stage technician and magic consultant has sharpened my ability to think quickly, adapt under pressure, and maintain precision skills essential to on-set work. As part of the Standby Props team, I support the Art Department by ensuring continuity, responding to last-minute changes, and enhancing storytelling through prop interaction.I also have a keen interest in Prop Modelling and Fabrication, working with various materials to create functional, interactive, and illusion-based props. My experience ensures that creative vision is met with practical, on-set usability.Driven by a passion for storytelling through design, I am committed to learning, growing, and contributing to high-quality, visually cohesive productions.
