About

I’m an enthusiastic and dependable communicator with over five years of experience in fast paced hospitality and retail settings. Throughout my career I’ve developed strong interpersonal skills, handled high-pressure situations with confidence, and taken on leadership responsibilities that required clear professional communication. Alongside this, I’ve worked as a children’s entertainer, creating fun and engaging experiences and building a natural ability to connect with young audiences. I also volunteered during sixth form in Llangrannog, helping to look after groups of children aged 11–13 an experience that strengthened my responsibility, patience and teamwork. I’ve had on-camera and voiceover experience since the age of eight, working on commercials and projects that gave me a strong foundation in presenting and engaging an audience. Fluent in both Welsh and English, I bring adaptability and confidence to new challenges.
