As graduate of Grant MacEwan University’s Theatre Production program, Tiana has spent the last two decades working in Edmonton Theatre, where extreme weather, fire, illnesses, broken scenery, aggressive prop handling, and squirrels have taught her much about problem solving and remaining calm in a crisis. Past credits include working as Production Manager for the Freewill Shakespeare Festival, Head of Lighting and Carpentry for Theatre Network, and Technical Director for Alberta Musical Theatre (formerly Alberta Opera). Her favourite show experiences include scenic construction for AMTC’s Pinocchio while 7 months pregnant, and building the fun and creepy set for Theatre Network’s The Woman in Black, with all its ghostly tricks. She is very lucky to have an incredibly supportive family who pressured her into theatre so they could get free tickets.
