As a Mechanical Integrator at TAIT, I regularly travel to clients globally to inspect, install, maintain and repair lifting equipment, machinery and staging. I have a Diploma in the examination of Powered Lifting Machines, a qualification from the Lifting Equipment Engineer's Association (LEEA). Formally, my training is in Technical Theatre - I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, London, where I specialised in Theatrical Automation, Rigging and Virtual Production.

I maintain the following skillsets: Thorough Examination of Lifting Equipment to LOLER, Steel Wire Rope Examination to ISO 4309:2017, Rope Access (IRATA Level 1), Installation of Lifting Appliances in the Entertainment Industry, Understanding of BS EN 17206:2020, BS 7905, BS 7906, EN 13411.
