I am an early career lighting designer, also working as a programmer and electrician. I have spent some time away from theatre, but have recently returned and am as passionate as ever about our industry.
I feel strongly that the theatre industry is not representative of our population, particularly with regards to gender, race, and socioeconomic background. I am extremely conscious of the fact that I am a part of the current majority in the industry, and would like if possible to use what privilege I do have to help those people who are underrepresented.
