About
I’m a performer and creative professional with roots in musical theatre and film, and I’m fascinated by how stories shape people and culture. My work spans stage and screen—from Matilda the Musical and The Phantom of the Opera to global campaigns and television—while also collaborating behind the scenes with studios like Pulse Films on story-driven content. In addition to performing, I design learning experiences and coach leaders, blending creativity, psychology, and storytelling to connect people through narrative, emotion, and imagination.
