During my time at Disguise as a QA Engineer, I had the opportunity to work on the rollout of many industry-leading features, such as OCIO, as well as numerous feature upgrades. 1. Assisted with the development of a wide scope of features, from a new Virtual Production workflow to an improved way of connecting products to third-party products. 2. Liaise with Developers and other international departments within the organisation to make the necessary software changes to best suit the needs and requirements of our clients. 3. Coordinate meetings across numerous time zones to ensure any faults with products are dealt with as effectively and efficiently as possible

After working closely with the GSWD when it came to creating social media content for their 400 year anniversary I was offered the amazing opportunity to join the GSWD as a Freeman through the trade route. As far as I am aware I am one of the first people to join the organisation through the trade route with no real connection to the trade itself. This is a huge honour and couldn't have happened without the support of the GSWD council

In recent months I have been volunteering as a social media video and content creator, alongside the Gold and Silver Wyre Livery Company, for their 400-Year Exhibition which was presented at the Guildhall Art Gallery. My role within the livery company wasn't just to create content for the exhibition but also to find modern ways of broadening the demographic of people who know about the Livery Company and the work it undertakes for not only the Gold and Silver Wyre trade but also the local community. The exhibition was a great success with over 9000 visitors from all around the globe. The content was created using a mixture of Adobe Creative Cloud software with the correct dimensions for the platforms we were publishing the content on such as Instagram and LinkedIn.

During my time at the National Theatre, immediately after graduating from university, I worked on numerous shows, including the Olivier Award-winning production Dear England. I was also fortunate to work on shows such as The Witches and Nye. 1. Operating the video content required for shows at the Royal National Theatre using a combination of Disguise media servers and QLab. 2. Pre-programming media servers ready for upcoming shows as well as preparing all of the hardware needed for the shows, from projectors, cable looms, vision mixers and media servers 3. Communicating with other members of the creative team to ensure that all visions are followed through with.

Part Time Video Technician for the Main Stage at the Royal Opera House 1.

Liaising with the Directors and other members of the creative team to create a synergy and ensure that all visions are upheld and presented as best as possible.

My job at Waitrose was 1 of 2 that I maintained during my university studies. It wasn't always easy with deadlines, time management and other educational commitments. However, these challenges have helped me work on and enhance my skills and abilities. Not only in areas such as time management, but also when it comes to demonstrating to others that I am a reliable person to work with and interact with. 1. Throughout my time at Waitrose, I moved from being a shelf stacker to a checkout operator to occasionally managing the checkouts and shop floor team leader. 2. Contributed to the store consistently by providing excellent customer service and ensuring that I gave every customer the best experience possible 3. I worked at numerous Waitroses throughout my studies from College through to the end of my undergraduate degree. Doing this greatly improved my ability to work with and collaborate with people from all backgrounds ,as well as improve my time management ability.

I have now completed my time at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama (GSMD) During my time at GSMD, I was able to work on shows up and down the country, my most memorable production that I was fortunate to work on was the 2022 Norwich Lovelight Festival. It was a surreal moment to be presenting content I had made on such a large canvas in my home city. As part of my final year project, which focused on the field of AR. Creating AR content using Lens Studio which could be activated using NFC technology and QR Codes and placed on top of physical tracking markers. This was an amazing project to end my time at GSMD with as AR is a field that I am eager to expand my knowledge and understanding within. As part of this final-year project, I conducted an expansive amount of research into the feasibility and profitability of AR in terms of B2B and B2C usage. It was truly insightful and eye-opening with regards to the full scope and possibility of AR.
