Employment History & Experience

Throughoutt my life I have had various experiences with theatre and accents have quickly become my strong point as they seem to come naturally. My main strength on stage is without a doubt comedy! However with the little experience I have with television, I feel that I would need bigger character challenges that sticking to the norm as I'm quite a strong character myself!

Employment History & Experience

Sadly I am currently lacking in experience as a presenter but I am very eager to obtain some! I am not one to by shy in front of the camera and am happy to work alongside any 'mishaps' or unexpected changes as I have studied improvisation as part of my degree for 2 years now so am more than ready to deal with the unexpected.

I have experience as a voice over artist having worked as an online mystery shopper which required me to be confident with a variety of accents and voices and be convincing so the client didn't suspect anything strange.

I have also done voices for student films and animations
