Carpenter, Portland Center Stage
Rejoined the crew at the beginning of the 2013 season. I was able to bring back techniques and best practices I was able to implement and share with other crew members. Such as, using contact adhesive for our final skin of platforms, instead of white glue and staples for a smooth texture.
Hired on to strike a set down in late December. A week after I was called back to work on a week to week basis. I built many flats, some columns, and worked two load-ins.
