I am a 32 year old Welsh actress with 11 professional years in acting. I have a two year old boy who is my world. My career did take a back seat for a couple of years but I now have all the love and support to make my career a success.

Singer:
I am a versatile vocalist, with knowledge in performance & session singing, most recent work being "Diva in Pricilla Queen of the dessert, recording work for P&O, Celebrity cruises, Qdos, Warners, Lead vocals with Zoe Tyler & Richard E Grant on Triqueta, Kieran Powell’s Voiceovers for his Ventriloquist DVD.

I pick up things super fast, I can read music and have attention to detail,
also able to endlessly change things musically & vocally in a multitude of ways to get exactly what the producer or writer is after!
(I understand that sometimes they don’t know what they want till they hear it!).

I can hear the full harmony arrangement by myself.
I have very accurate pitching, especially when it comes to ‘tracking’ parts up (ie. doubling, tripling etc).
Blend tightly in all aspects (eg. tonally, phrasing, diction, vibrato etc.)
I am stylistically versatile which will hopefully maximise work.
have a reliable, robust vocal technique that gives me a high level of control, stamina & consistency
I have a high level of patience!

And finally I am able to generate performance-level vibe in a completely ‘dead’ room with no audience, take after take after take!
Additional skills:
Corporate vocalist
I have my own 3 x 45 min set pop/jazz/soul with music pads for piano & bass.
