About Me
I am a 23-year old actor, singer and theatre-maker based in Surrey. I play the cello to a high level, speak fluent Spanish and Italian, and have dance training in Ballet and Jazz.
I've worked in short films, as a voice actor, and starred in National Tours of musicals such as "Persephone", for which I was nominated Best Leading Performer in a New Production of a Musical on BroadwayWorld. Most recently, I have lead a musical at the Camden Fringe, which received several 5* reviews. After graduating from the University of Oxford, I received a scholarship to travel the US and Canada and research performance practises, and when I got back I started working as a director for a youth theatre. In my free time I love to spend time in nature, hiking and caring for animals, and I love the cinema!
I am passionate about new writing and making theatre accessible to communities.
