Chertsey,Surrey

Summary

I am a dedicated and adaptable professional with a strong background in both care and public service, having worked as a care worker and spent a year as a police officer. These roles have equipped me with excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work well under pressure. I have always had a deep appreciation for plants, nature, and outdoor environments, and I'm now pursuing my long-standing passion for landscaping—particularly within the creative world of TV and film set design. I'm especially drawn to how natural elements can transform a set and contribute to storytelling. With a genuine interest in how TV shows are made and a strong work ethic, I’m eager to bring my unique background and enthusiasm to a team where creativity and nature come together.
