Proudest moment of your event career so far:
As I watched the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, I felt proud to have been part of the site team that managed the infrastructure install for the public viewing. The collective hard work and long hours that we put in paid off as we saw the crowds gather to pay their respects. It was a humbling moment, and I felt grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such an important event.
Favourite event you’ve worked on:
The favorite event that I've been part of was "The Halloween Playground" at HTHAC. The event was curated and managed by a small team that aimed to bring a derelict Town Hall back to life, as part of a series of events. It was an immersive experience featuring live music, attractions, and bars, and the atmosphere was electric. Being involved in bringing the Town Hall back to life over the course of a four-year residence was an incredible journey, with this event being a definite highlight.
