About Me

I am very creative, and open minded to new projects. I am currently trying to get my company and classes of the ground in Lincolnshire, and I feel it would be benificial to all those i will be training if i can have the commercial experiences man of the are looking for. so far most of my work has been very specialist and i wish to branch out and explore the commercial world of dance; music videos etc, as i feel my skills and training will support any tasks put forward to me. Dancing is my life, and with it comes acting and singing, and i enjoy doing any and all!
