活动

As part of Performance Design & 技术, we have the good fortune to work not only with Theatre, but also the Dance and Music departments. I enjoy working with students in the shops and on-stage as we collaborate on building productions and telling stories.

Outside of work, I enjoy:

  • Woodwork, Leatherwork, Metalwork, etc.
  • 徒步旅行
  • Baking and Cooking
  • Reading Mysteries
