About Me

I'm a trained Actor born in Staffordshire, UK and raised in Brisbane, Australia, which enables me to very easily and competently switch between both dialects. I have an Advanced Diploma in Screen & Stage Acting. I'm agency represented (Australia), a bit of a perfectionist and I love a challenge. I've recently moved to London in mid-November. I have had 6+ years of solo vocal (singing) training and 20+ years in various styles of dance. I welcome the opportunity to take part in a variety of productions and projects. I've been described as hard working and conscientious. My love and passion for communicating,story telling and collaboration would make me an asset to any production.
