As a creative on the Autistic Spectrum, I stand as an advocate for neurodiverse film workers and strongly support the need for equal opportunities when sourcing crew. I pride myself on my positive, approachable and hard working attitude always working to a high technical standard, calmly and efficiently under pressure to bring projects to life, whilst keeping sets both functional and fun places to be. I value talent and contributions across all departments & enjoy working colaboratively.
