About me
Whilst studying at King's College University, I was fortunate enough to be cast in the Black Pioneers Project, by Director Joseph Megel, in honour of black history month. Once I had left university, I landed the role of Ruth Thomas, in Slave, which was shown at the Arcola Theatre Lab, directed by award-winning playwright Jacqueline Malcolm. The play received positive feedback, from the private audience, which included not least of which, critic John Bryant (The Stage). Since graduating from University, I have successfully transitioned into acting; having completed a year's worth of training at the Identity School of Acting removed . I was then cast in my first full scale professional play called Midlife Crisis, by Alan Charles later on in 2021, which has toured the country and since, Carribbean.License & Passport
