British actress, dancer, singer & humanitarian with more than 20 years experience within the industry.

 

 Born & raised in Hertfordshire with links to London, Scotland & Canada. Having grown up surrounded by music, grooves & good food, is it any wonder I thrive in the creative industry.

 

A question I get asked a lot is, “If you couldn’t act or dance anymore, what would you do?” I’d love to become a plant-based chef or an animal handler.

In 2018 became an ambassador for Vayyu ~ An-Award Winning Ethical, Sustainable and Organic Luxury British Brand.

Soldier, Officer, Mentor. I have so far served for 23 years in the British Army. Born in Blackpool, well travelled with experiences ranging from the shop floor to executive level.

In 2019 I volunteered as a professional mentor at Birmingham City University supporting BSc students who were setting their personal goals and development objectives.  This continued through the pandemic as I adapted from physically coaching face to face to online.

My goal is to assist other service leavers who wish to step into this fascinating sector, whilst supporting their mental health through mentoring and training.
