I am Props.

I am the IA.

It's been a fun job since the beginning. I've been in Local 322 for 15 years and have been Head Props of the North Carolina Dance Theatre's "Nutcracker" for the last seven. It has become one of my favorite jobs.

I'm lucky to have been in the business 34 years with amazing DPs and technicians. I see what tools would make their work easier and more efficient. My designs respond to their needs. || Je me considère chanceux de travailler depuis 34 ans aux côtés de directeurs photo et de techniciens talentueux.
