Education

About me

I started performing at the tender age of 5. My mother saw potential in my hyperactivity and channeled my energy into dance lessons, which then led to singing and acting classes. Even though I loved all three, my heart was always in acting. I slowly made her transition to TV/film and has since been in many short films, web series', corporate videos and commercials. I have studied many different techniques, holding a BA in Acting for Stage and Screen, and still continues to exercise my craft by attending workshops with industry professionals. I like to find the truth in my performances and use my "lived" experiences to be able to emotionally connect with the characters played . My ideal role would be in a sci-fi fantasy TV series/film as I am a huge fan! Aside from the artsy fartsy stuff, I loves to volunteer and help those in need. I am a massive foodie who loves to cook and travel, trying different cuisines. I currently live in North West London with my fiancé, and pet hamster (and chief trouble-maker!), Pikachou.
