Having grown up with performer parents and having been a regular employee at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, I have been surrounded by entertainment production of all sorts throughout my life. This has fostered a deep interest in production, and after recently being employed as Stage and Tour Manager of a sell-out Edinburgh Fringe hit musical, I realised that this presented a career path that could utilise my natural ease with people, my calm demeanour, and my organisational skills. I also had the opportunity this Fringe to work as a Production Assistant for a comedy production company, providing me with valuable insight into the logistical side of marketing and producing live performance. I have a passion for comedy and have particularly enjoyed being part of the production process.
Having worked as a Geography teacher in a Glasgow high school for a year, my skillset extends far beyond this. Working in content production would provide me with the opportunity to express myself both as part of a dynamic team, as well as individually. I am used to working with young people: I understand how best to communicate with them, determine their needs, and the challenges involved.
I am a keen sportsman, and have played football and tennis my whole life. I will turn my hand to any sport, however, and since University have enjoyed playing snooker and squash, and started running.
I am from a family of professional musicians, so music in all forms has also always played a significant role in my life. I enjoy music of all genres, but have a particular interest in funk, soul, and jazz music.
