1991- 2004 Theatre Production Manager

Between the time 1991- 2004 I worked as a freelance production manager, stage manager, technical director, lighting designer, sound operator, LX operator, set designer and costumier. Duties include, production and financial coordination roles, scheduling and meetings. Liasing with artists and tradespeople, negotiating sponsorships, assisting public relations and facilitating a successful outcome.

1989-1992 Graphic Designer
ABC TV, Northbourne Avenue, ACT
Prepared graphics for the local evening news. These graphics reflected the news item being discussed and were created each day using a Paintbox application. I was also responsible for the weather graphics which were hand drawn from faxed information. The 7pm news is live, this required me to operate the equipment and deliver each cue when the director called.
Working in these conditions demonstrated my ability to contribute in a team environment where each day is set by a deadline, each with no second take.
It also demonstrated my ability to work with initiative under minimal supervision in a client focussed production and my ability to meet deadlines.
