About me
With dancers as parents, I naturally pursued this path, however I progressed into Musical Theatre and discovered my flair and love for acting. I have explored many styles of Musical Theatre.I am 17 years old and became a member of the National Youth Theatre in August 2016, after which I will become a full time member of NYT until the age of 26 which will help me with my training, casting opportunities and to pursue my dream of becoming an actress. I have also been an Ambassador for NYT and completed their Acting for Screen Course in the Summer of 2017.
I have just completed 2 week's work experience at RADA during the Festival 2019 season and am studying a week's Shakespeare course with NYT in August 2019.
