A highly experienced cultural leader with over 20 years’ experience at senior level. Currently Executive Director at Birmingham Rep, previously Executive Director at Derby Theatre. Project managed the delivery of Lincoln Castle Revealed, Lincoln Castle’s £20m restoration. Strong experience of visioning and strategy, business planning, commercial and financial management, change management and organisational development across heritage and arts organisations.

I’m delighted to be joining Legacy WM board of trustees both to support the development of a brilliant grass roots organisation in our city, and to connect The Rep with more local communities and learn how we can better serve them through our work as a major city institution.
