About Me
I am an English born lady, who has spent most her life in Australia and part of it in New Zealand. My accent is predominately Australian with quite a hint of "Kiwi" through it. I have lived in the UK for a total of five years since 1995. Three years from 1995 to 1998, and now for the past two years. I have traveled widely throughout Europe and also lived in North America for one year during a University exchange scholarship in 1992.
I am a former journalist, who now dabbles in writing children's stories from home, and at the same time working in the hospitality industry.
A little about me in a more personal sense: I believe I have lived a varied and interesting life, and have overcome many challenges, including losing my only sister 12 years ago and then taking care of her children, alongside my own daughter.
I have overcome certain illnesses, and believe I have a fighting spirit and am an eternal optimist!
I have long thought about applying for work in the television industry, and it is now with more free time in my life it feels right to follow this dream. I would be happy to try out for various genres, including advertisements, extra work, small speaking parts, and of course the possibility of anything bigger! Drama and Comedy are the two genres of programs that appeal to me the most.
This is a new journey for me, and I would love the opportunity to see if my beliefs that I could do well with it are made into a reality.
