Education

About me

Mainly trained in music and singing, I have been working in the theatre industry for the past few years. Strived for different, more "practical" paths in the past, even had Neuroscience as a major in college. But as Jim Carrey once said "many of us make career choices out of fear disguised as practicality..." and this was my wrong turn. Now, a few years wiser, I am taking a leap of faith and investing on something I heartily love doing. And I duly hope to speak significance through it.

Additional information:
I was raised in Athens, Greece where I was trained as a singer in Classical repertoire. I studied Music Performance at the American College of Greece for a year and a half and then transferred to the Ohio State University. I had a vocal injury that prevented me from finishing a music degree so I switched to Neuroscience and Psychology. I abruptly returned to Greece in 2017, had done vocal surgery the same year, so I returned to the field. With sporadic acting training background, I got through a few audition sessions for a very prestigious theatre company in which I luckily got recruited for the lead actress and singer role. After a two year contract, I decided to expand horizons and I moved to London with great excitement for the new challenges, life lessons and cultural inspiration this beautiful city has to offer. So I now focus on training and growing as an artist in this new beginning.
