I have been singing, dancing and acting since the age of 3.

I currently study BBO ballet to Advanced 1, and tap to Advanced with Frances Richmond at the Lordswood Dancentre. I have been on Pointe for 5 years and am currently studying Advanced Modern under the ISTD syllabus, aswell as having just completed my Gold Jazz.

Since I stared on the stage I have performed many times in London Theatres such as the London Palladium, Her Majesty’s, The Saddler’s Wells and The Swan Theatre in Stratford, as well as many local theatres, including the Central and the Hazlitt Theatre Maidstone. The majority of these shows have been with my agent Mary Underwood, whom I have been with for 10 years. My latest shows with Mary took me back to the Saddler’s Wells and Her Majesty’s, where I took the lead role in both of our routines. .

I like to perform both solo and chorus routines.

As well as being taught, I like to teach and choreograph my own dances, which sometimes contain some gymnastic movements. I am currently a member of the Gillingham Operatic and Dramatic Society, and take an active role in 2 shows each year. At 14 I played the lead role of Snow White in Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs. I have played lead roles with the company as well as being in the chorus and also choreographing for them.

I love to be in the theatre environment and my aim in life is be involved with the theatre in some way, whether it be performing or helping backstage. I would, one day, like to have the chance to be Stage Manager for one production as I have been assistant stage manager for one show and really enjoyed the experience.

I have had experience as a teacher as for a year I was employed by a company called Magic Music as a dance and drama tutor within primary schools, running an after school club.

I have just completed my Certificate Teaching course with the BBO with Distintion, and hope to do be doing my diploma at the end of this year.
