I am a UK-based Prop Maker and Scenic Painter with experience across film, theatre, live events and immersive environments. I specialise in translating design concepts into high-quality physical builds, working confidently from initial brief through to installation and final dressing.My skillset spans polycarving, scenic painting, mould making and casting, 3D printing (FDM & resin), model making and prop finishing, with a strong focus on realism and detail. I have worked on large-scale builds for live performances and themed environments, as well as film productions where I have taken on responsibilities including prop sourcing, fabrication, standby props and armoury support.I am experienced in leading small teams, managing workflows, and working to tight deadlines while maintaining high production standards. Comfortable both in the workshop and on site, I have experience with installs, working at height, and collaborating closely with art departments, production designers and other creatives.Alongside technical ability, I bring a problem-solving mindset, adaptability and a strong work ethic developed through previous experience in high-pressure environments. I take pride in delivering creative, practical and visually impactful results on every project.
