About me

I came to London from Derby in 1988 to develop my nursing career and settled in Islington 26 years ago. I have recently taken early retirement from psychiatric nursing to focus on developing a career in acting, something that I had wanted to do since I was a youngster.

I have been in training to enter the acting profession for many years whilst I was a professional nurse specialising in the area of mental health in the British National Health Service. The acting classes that I have engaged in are:

Anna Scher MBE: from 2012 ongoing (Community Theatre) focusing on improvisation.
Charles Verrall: 2013 ongoing (Improvisation Classes)
Jon Campell (deceased): from 2013 to 2017) Acting classes and Intensive acting courses.
I also had 1:1 acting sessions with Jon Campbell 2014 to 2017.


I have good communication skills, can give truthful performances, respond well to direction, and achieve believable performances. I am open, warm, and friendly.

    I have a lot of knowledge about the psychological manifestations of the human condition; have been involved in small productions and engaged in public speaking activities; led meetings ; spent some time as a researcher and given public performances in Health and Social Care. This knowledge and experience definitely helps me in my acting career in terms of confidence to perform in public,research, develop of different characters within my acting performances.
