Highlights
-
I have done a number of paid photo campaigns, such as the Greater Building Society, SKII, Nescafe and Radio Rentals. I have been involved in many artistic shoots (Street style, studio and natural outdoors), for Daniel Karjadi, Leon Sidik and The Photo Studio Glebe.
I am primarily an actress and have therefore completed many shoots in character for publicity and promotional materials. -
I have just filmed a role on channel 10's Wonderland. I have also just completed 12 eps, as one of 3 lead females, in the second season of the Internationally acclaimed webseries SYD2030. I have two feature film credits as leading roles - 1500 Steps (2014) and Drunk (2015). I have recently completed a feature role on a TVC for Nescafe and an episode on Deadly Women. I have completed a number of short films, including Love & Grief, Stew, and Metro Screen's Big Duck. I have trained with NIDA, ACA, MCTV, Guildhall School London and have a degree in Theatre and Film Studies from the University of NSW. I have also taught improvisation at schools in Australia and the US. I have played lead roles in many theatre productions, including Our Town, Daisy Pulls it Off, Honour, Daylight Savings and Women of Troy.
