Isaac is a Scottish scenic carpenter, metal worker and occasional prop maker who has a passion for creative problem solving. Before arriving at The Royal Conservatoire, Isaac studied Interior design and furniture making at Edinburgh College, whilst also working professionally as a chef. A lifelong love of film and a fascination with the art departments that make them led Isaac to apply to the Conservatoire to take his first steps down the path into that industry. Credits include Il Trittico (Scottish Opera) 2023, Flight (RCS) 2022, and Sweeney Todd (RCS) 2022.
