About Me

Hi, my name is Catherine and I am 22 years old. I'm 5 ft 6.5", I have a slim build - dress size 6 - I'm white british, have very fair skin and have long blonde hair and blue eyes. My playing age is between 15 and 22. I look young for my age and often get cast as a teenager but have also played chatacters my own age. I'm a bubbly individual, who takes on every challenge with great determination and focus. Directors have said that I am a very versatile performer and am enjoyable to work with. I work well as part of a team as well as being able to use my own initiative.
I can't drive so I will get a train or bus to the desired location and I can be quite flexible with my availability. Thank you for your interest :)
