About Me
As a drama and theatre student, my passions naturally lie in acting, performing, devising new pieces of theatre with new stories to tell, or, trying to find ways to reinvent old ones.
Either way, there is a magic and a beauty behind telling stories. Being able to engage people with those stories is a wonderful and exciting experience. To know you have helped construct and pave the way for someone's emotional journey - be it a happy one, a sad one, a contemplative one or a humorous one - is brilliant.
When you take on a character, you become a carrier for these stories and it becomes your duty to do that story justice to the best of your ability.
That's what I love doing. Making people laugh, making them smile, making them cry, making them think.
And I hope to continue doing so for as long as possible.
