About

Hello! I am a motivated, articulate and charismatic artist driven to forge a career in the creative arts. I thrive on collaboration across theatre, film, and digital media, bringing energy, organisation, and a sharp eye for detail to every project.\n\nOver the years I have worn many hats—actor, writer, producer, poet, and playwright—working with venues and organisations such as Bristol Old Vic, The Pleasance, Poet in the City, and Spork. I am passionate about storytelling, community engagement, and using performance to entertain, inspire, and provoke thought.
