About Me

I'm a singer/songwriter/dancer/teacher and model. There's nothing else I excell in more than performing. I spend ALL my spare time dancing or singing. I'm loud, outgoing, understanding, caring and take criticism with pride and try to learn from all my experiences, whether they be good or bad, professional or personal. I'm eager to try anything new and meet new personalities, and happy to learn new things. I'm a quick and easy learner, always happy to listen. You won't find anyone more honest to work with, I'm always reliable and 110% commited.

Experience & Qualifications

General Experience

I'm a singer/songwriter/dancer from Reading but happy to travel also. I'm a full time dance and singing teacher currently working for numerous companies, theatre and private schools in Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire. I have a current DBS, insurance and over 10 years teaching experience with references if required. Previously I have been in a couple of established girl groups, one being signed to an independent label and supporting many artists, and the other being featured on X Factor 2010; please see videos. I have also danced and modelled in a long list of videos and worked alongside a few photographers on a TFP basis. I am happy to consider this still as I'm always looking to keep my portfolio updated. I'm now writing alongside a couple of producers and taking my music more seriously as a solo artist/writer. I have my own studio set up I can work from. Hard working, reliable, adaptable and driven are the best words to describe me.

Miscellaneous Information

Singing, Songwriting, Dancing, Acting.
I’m a hard working, reliable individual with over ten years experience teaching. Having worked with a wide range of people throughout many jobs, I feel adapting to new roles and new classes of students and individual artists is an easy transition for me.
I aim to bring a lot of energy and fun to my work but focus carefully on keeping a fair balance of order. I like to use current commercial music as well a musical theatre to extend the students understanding of singing, dancing and performing and also to keep interest amongst my classes by incorporating other styles and genres.
I have musically directed, co directed and co choreographed a huge amount of shows for both primary and secondary ages and am efficient in lesson planning in order to create the final product in a tight time frame.
I offer one to one training as well as group classes and have experience working with all walks of life and personal circumstances.
I’m very passionate about music and teaching performing arts and helping those build confidence and satisfactory technique in their singing, dancing and overall performance.
