About me
I'm a London-based singer, actress, coach and choral director. I trained in Musical Theatre at the Royal Academy of Music and have professional experience in vocal genres including musical theatre, pop, rock, jazz, classical and choral music.My performance credits include theatre, film and voiceover work, TV appearances on Channel 5 and SkyOne, and frequent concerts/gigging across the UK and internationally.
I'm the current lead singer for 25-year-running boogie-woogie & blues band, the Red Stripe Band (Derry Jazz Festival, Edinburgh Jazz Festival, Pizza Express Jazz Club) and a frequent lead vocalist with the London Gay Big Band (Britain's Got Talent).
I'm a co-creator, arranger and member of London pop a cappella group, Belt Up (Live at Zedel, The Other Palace, Pizza Express Live venues) who were featured on SkyOne's Sing: Ultimate A Cappella with Cat Deeley, and the creator/director of LBTQ+ female a cappella group, the Syncing Violets (Club A Cappella at The Other Palace).?
