Once upon a time, there was a country bumpkin whose real dreams were of the magical life behind the screen. One day, after many months of hassling them, Emmerdale finally came knocking. They inducted her into their freelance Props pool, where she had her first taste of set life. She was hooked. Must do courses. Must meet people. Time for that all-important and absolutely essential yet horrifically excruciating NETWORKING.

One fortuitous day, she met a genie called Choi, who helped all her dreams come true. Fast-forward to Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw. (Shooting near Leeds in little old Eggborough, of all places – praise be to the industry for recruiting locally!)
Woah. Big cars. Big set. Big crew. MORE PLEASE. It’s all in London you say? The big smoke? BRING IT ON!

HELLO NEW WORLD! The Postcard Killings – a modern horror. Turning London into Europe (oh, the irony). Rushing through the capital at all hours of the day… bit different from rural Yorkshire. Jump to Enola Holmes – this time, Coordinating. Hone Excel FAST. Communication. Organisation. Diplomacy. It’s a tricky business keeping an office full of artists happy (!) but here we are now on the second series of The Witcher, performing a few of my own spells to keep the smiles on everyone’s faces. Now, the dream is to one day become a genie myself, pass on the lamp, and keep the magic moving.
