OBJECTIVE I have graduated from Dalhousie University with a combined First Class Honours degree in Technical Theatre and Physics. I enjoy the challenges provided by technical theatre and the combination of creative and technical solutions to such challenges. I am organised, highly motivated, adaptable and work well with others and under pressure. I enjoy learning new things, and am always trying to build on my knowledge attained from several years of active work in many areas of the business. I really enjoy what I do, and look forward to meeting the new challenges ahead.
