Employment History & Experience

I worked at a Haunted theme park in Auckland called Spookers (they're on Facebook) for a couple of months in between semesters at university 2006/2007. We were paid an hourly rate for putting our make up and costumes on and scaring the living daylights out of the customers/victims who came through the house. I played many different characters well.

Employment History & Experience

In 2007 I did some CGI work for a 15 second TVC for Resene Paints in Wellington. I was filmed in front of a green screen, dancing as if i was in a club. They took my dance movements and turned them into a collage of colours on screen, taking the shape of a dancing woman. Non-recognisable role. Paid role.

Prior to this I was a paid '60s dancer' in a Wellington bar.

I learned jazz-ballet dancing for 5 years and was one of the best in my class, earning awards for excellence.

Employment History & Experience

Most recently I was an extra in a pilot for TV3 (New Zealand), standing on the side lines of a rugby field, silently reacting to an imaginary game and looking enthralled.

Before then I was an extra in the budget television series "Bogan Family Films" (by Chris Stapp and Matt Heath who were on Balls of Steel in the UK) which screened on C4 (New Zealand). I played a bridesmaid in a wedding scene, reacting to the chaos that was happening around me.
