I am a Principal Technical Specialist (Arts) at Brunel University of London, where my role combines strategic oversight of the Technical Directorate while providing hands‑on technical expertise of music and theatre production. I oversee the alignment of creative arts technical education with current industry standards and lead a small specialist team that provides technical support across Arts & Humanities and Education subject areas. I also support performing arts events across the University and manage the budgets, resources, and technical infrastructure that enable high‑quality teaching, learning, and performance activities.
