About Me

I am a hard working person who enjoys challenges and working with other people. I am an excellent communicator and I am organised. I like to perform, to be able to express different personas and to indulge the audience into certain moods and atmospheres. I love to be creative in every aspect through the music I write, through to the characters I devise. I enjoy public speaking, anything creative- abstract art. I believe that what I like, what moves me in any way, makes me want to express it in many art forms. I would love to show the world what I enjoy the most and to maintain doing something that makes me smile.

To perform is the only thing that has interested me greatly, and has made me to become involved in most fields in the Performing Arts. I would like to maintain what I love doing the most, and to be able to grab any opportunity which comes my way.
