About Me
I'm an easy going, fun loving person, what you see is pretty much what you get with me. I like new challenges and will push myself to do 110% in everything I do, like to try and create a good first impression without be arrogant about it.
Can stand up for myself and will speak up if I dont agree with something, that said, I also know when to hold my tongue depending on the situation.

Experience & Qualifications
General Experience
I am part of a local theatre group in my village - The Sutton Theatre Company. It has been running for over 50 years, I have been part of it for 4 years now. We are very lucky to have someone who used to write material for the Two Ronnies and therefore have been very lucky to have had some amazing scripts. The shows I have been involved in are - Dads Army, I played the character of 'Chalker', cockney accent was adapted and was the female version of the original character, 'Walker'. I played the Mad Hatter in our version of Once Upon A Time (a panto we performed in 2011), in May 2012 I played the character of Alice Tinker (Emma Chambers) in our adapted version of 'Father Ted goes to Dibley' which was a brilliant success. Christmas 2012 we performed Aladdin which I played the role of the Genie.
I have done a fair amount of modelling work in the past, mainly very low paid jobs for photographers who are trying to start out. Sometimes I was paid cash and other times I accepted payment in the form of a disk with the photos on.
Qualifications & Training
The highest qualifications that I have are A Levels, C in Spanish, B in Sociology and B in Drama and Theatre Studies from 6th form in Secondary School. I am currently in the middle of an NVQ Level 2 certificate in Licensed Hospitality Management. I have a lot of life experience however!
I have worked in pubs, shops and restaurants since I was 14 years old and believe this has allowed me to gain a lot of confidence with new people / customers.
Other Information
Relevant Skills
As I've said before, I don't have any qualifications on paper but life experience is sometimes better I think!
Lots of experience with the general public, new people, making teams work together.
I've been told I can pull off a pretty good Welsh & Irish accent on cue if that helps.
Interests & Hobbies
I'm very family orientated, not because I'm single but because I'm lucky in the fact that I actually get along brilliantly with my family! I have a close circle of friends who I try and see as much as possible. I've got 3 godchildren who I like to spoil and teach them 'the ways of the world', I have a lot of fun with them & try to take them to new and exciting places.
I enjoy going to the Czech Republic, I have friends there who I stay with and am very lucky that they own a horse riding stables so can ride for miles and escape the normal life.
I like walking, not for sport or keeping fit reasons but because I can really switch off and enjoy the scenery.
