“Before I ventured into the big, bad world of theatre, I was working my way toward being a veterinarian. My previous life took me all over the world: studying gorillas in Uganda, working with primates in South Africa, and with small and large animals around the UK and Europe.
After realising my heart wasn’t tough enough for a veterinary career, I found myself at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, training in musical theatre. My theatrical career has been as wide-reaching as my former life; I have been lucky enough to work with theatres from Amalfi to Austin, with incredible artists from a variety of disciplines.
My work as an artist is grounded in emotion, and my storytelling is all about heart. I create emotionally mature performances that speak to people’s vulnerabilities, desires and fears.”
