“I’m currently in my third year at The Royal Welsh College
of Music & Drama on the BA (Hons) in Stage Management
& Technical Theatre. I love it, there is so much practical
experience in a variety of production roles working in the
professional theatre but also in other related industries.
I’ve taken part in several production placements around
the UK and its really opened my eyes to the arts industry.”
