In 2015 I moved from France to Glasgow to study Production Arts and Design at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, specialising in Prop Making and Scenic Art.
In October 2018 I started working at Scottish Opera as a prop maker. During my employment I have worked on over 20 productions that have toured the world.
I have also worked on projects with companies such as Dundee Rep Theatre, National Theatre Scotland, Itison Events, Scottish Ballet, English National Ballet, Grange Park Opera and as a freelance maker for designers such as Sir David McVicar as a prop and model maker.
In Sept. 2022 I took on the role of Prop Workshop Supervisor at Scottish Opera. As well as still producing props for each company production, I was responsible for the maintenance of the Props Workshop as well as inventory and stock management.
In me you will find someone who is dedicated, independent, resourceful and values beyond anything producing work to the very best of her ability. I continually strive towards achieving excellence in my work and jump at every opportunity to expand my skill set. I strongly believe that my experience has equipped me with the necessary technical knowledge, skills and self-motivation to excel in any fast paced creative environment.
If you have a commission or project you would like to discuss please contact me via the contact page. I look forward to hearing from you!
