Ruth Pollard

I am a strange and unique mix of creativity and organization. Two words that don't normally co-exist together in synergy; however I've never been one that lives in a box.

I have spent that last 5 years dreaming up events, working with hundreds of artists, leading thousands of people and building the largest festival in the southern hemisphere - Parachute Festival. I operated within the role of Programming Executive and Event Coordinator.

I am a trained make-up artist and have worked within this field freelance in my spare time for the last 10 years.

I was born in Germany and spent half of my life overseas, which has given me a rich understanding and respect for cultures and different nationalities; while equipping me with amazing life experiences that I value immensely and am truly grateful for.

I love the arts and breathe the world of the creative, but also have an equal passion to take vision and put legs to it. 

I believe in the power of team. I live in the realm of limitless imagination. I value hard work and integrity.  

Key skills: 

Events Management / Events Coordination

Exceptional in organisation, with the skills and experience to manage large projects; executing tasks to set deadlines and seeing major events through to completion.

I have the ability to work in a team environment and effectively represent an organisations agenda.

I have an acute attention to details and presentation
