About Me

I am an intelligent and confident undergraduate student with varied acting portfolio which includes theatre, short films, a BBC 1 primetime series and 60 episodes of voice-over work for Cbeebies. Although recently I have placed more focus on my academic achievements, I am keen to expand my profile further.
