About Me
Hi all, I am currently a media student, living in York (from Leeds) hoping to fulfil my dream of becoming an actress. I have back up plans but this is the job that I actually want as I think there is no better way to spend your life than escaping reality via taking the form of someone else. Acting allows you to take on different perspectives, gain knowledge about different areas of life and express all the parts of you you never got in touch with in real life. I belief that it\'s almost spiritual, in a strange way.
I used to act quite a lot as a child, in plays and on stage. When I was 10 I memorised all my lines for my role as Zazu from the Lion King after reading the script once. I always enjoyed the adrenaline rush and at the age of 11 won a cup for being the best actress in my drama group. I participated in street acting and more theatre work as a teenager, but was since distracted by school work and other life events and now I haven\'t acted other than in university and for films I\'ve made myself.
I\'m comfortable with quite a lot and am not wanting to do this for money, but because it\'s a dream I\'ve always had and I don\'t want to miss an opportunity just because some say it\'s unrealistic.
