About Me
I am a Performing Arts Technician at Gloucestershire College, supporting both staff and students in bringing creative projects to life. From lighting and sound to set design and costumes, I ensure every learner has access to the tools and guidance they need—whether they’re developing personal projects, staging plays, or producing large-scale musicals.
I also manage the upkeep of the college’s Taylor Theatre, maintaining equipment to industry standards and creating a safe, professional environment. My goal is to help students gain hands-on experience with professional-grade resources so they are well prepared for careers in the performing arts and production industries.
I am also temporarily standing in as Music Technician at Gloucestershire College assisting with the upkeep of their practice rooms and assisting the Lecturers in lesson's while they find a permanent replacement.
My main aims when working in a company are to make sure things are sustainable and cost effective keeping budgets to a minimum and using set or equipment that we already have.
