Floor Runner in Features & TV Drama
Also available as a:
Floor Runner
Following my degree in Accounting & Finance, I have been working in the TV & Film for almost 2 years, pursuing the Assistant Director department. I am a confident runner, proficient in fast pace and changing environments and eager to continue to progress in the Assistant Director department, 3rd AD next. Most of my experience comes from indie films, where I have been given much more responsibility and stepped up to cover as 3rd on few occasions.
