About Me

I recently played a Reporter in a historical production written by Jude Freeman which was based on the life or Rosa Parks, exploring her journey as a civil rights activist in the 1940’s. The production involved a wide range of diverse characters allowing the cast to play multiple roles presenting a moving story and educating the audience along the way.

I am now a cast member of LightPost production company, at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre, which uses theatre to create productions around issues within society today.

Qualifications & Training

I’ve also received weekly training through an Acting for Screen workshop at the Midlands Art Centre (Mac), which focuses on improvisation scenarios, monologues, commercials and cold reads. It has been very valuable as it has allowed me to take risks and explore various characters, but most importantly develop as an actor on a weekly basis.
