I've proven to manage crew well and have stayed within all budgets given to me. I have strong work ethics and work alongside solid hardworking crew!

Lists as:

  • Production Coordinator - Drama
  • Production Manager - Screen
  • Production Manager – Drama
  • Unit Manager

Over 12 years of experience across production management, coordination, and unit management within film and television, I bring a strong working knowledge of pre-production planning and on-set execution, with practical involvement in scheduling, budgeting support, logistics, and crew coordination.

I hold a Diploma qualification and continue to develop toward Production Manager and Line Producer roles. Experienced in assisting with line producing functions, including budget tracking and resource allocation, ensuring productions operate efficiently within established constraints.

Have strong work ethics, but am never too proud to ask for help from my team when it’s required. For this reason, I always have solid and clear communication with my crew and HOD’s to ensure each goal and production is met to the utmost satisfaction. I work hard to contribute to productions through hands-on coordination, problem-solving, and maintaining alignment between production requirements and on-ground execution during pre-production and principal photography phases.
