About Me

I trained at Drama Studio London (graduated in 2016) and am the Co-Artistic Director/producer at Upper Hand Theatre Co founded in 2023.

I have worked predominantly on stage in classical theatre, Shakespeare, pantomime (leading girl/boy/fairy), children's theatre and many period drama roles. I have extensive touring experience, large and small scale across the UK/Ireland. My screen experience covers short films and two independent feature films, the first 'The Invisible Enemy' is available on Amazon Prime, the second 'She' is in post-production. Earlier this year I finished narrating my 9th audiobook for Audible from my home studio.

I am part of two rehearsed reading play groups who stage semi rehearsed readings every month, one which rediscovers old classics and the other exploring new writing. I also take regular screen acting classes with Mixing Networks.
