Biography

I am a lighting programmer deeply passionate about the world of theatre and live events. Graduating from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in 2019 marked the beginning of a fulfilling journey that led me to join the West End production of SiX the Musical as Head of Lighting.

 

Over my three-year tenure in the West End production, I had the opportunity to develop a broad range of skills while working with new technologies. In addition to my commitments to SiX, I found joy in contributing to other projects, such as programming for English Touring Opera and as assistant LD for the Waitress UK tour.

 

Having left my full-time position at SiX the Musical in 2022, I am now eager to explore new opportunities in the theatre and live events industry. Based in London, I am flexible and ready to travel across the UK and internationally. I look forward to bringing my passion for lighting and technical expertise to diverse projects and collaborating with fellow professionals to bring magic to the stage.
