Set Designer Costume Designer Dramaturg

I'm a set and costume designer, trained at Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. I want to design for extraordinary stories in unusual spaces (or usual spaces used in extraordinary ways). I love working collaboratively and am looking to work with Directors who like to be part of the design process. I particularly enjoy using spaces and materials in a clever way that both excites and is resource aware.
