Profile

Hi, I'm Chloe!

Originally from Essex, I am mainly based around London and Surrey, but am happy to travel. I graduated from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in 2022 with a degree in Production Arts - Design Realisation (Prop Making, Scenic Art and Construction).

During the course, I have found a love for Prop Making, as well as thoroughly enjoying the other aspects I have been taught.

My training has allowed me to work closely with professional designers and tackle some interesting projects. I was also very lucky to gain my work placement with the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford-Upon-Avon, making props for their run of Much Ado About Nothing.

I very much hope to expand my experience into other areas of the industry, such as film/TV, if the opportunities arise.

Overall, I aim to be able to create effective pieces, that I am proud to see on stage or screen.
