Education

About me

Having spent the last five years training I am now eagar to put that training into practice and start working!

It is my hope that I have the opportunity to work both on Stage and in Screen.

On stage I would love to perform in Shakespeare's Plays and GreekTradegy's, at theatres indoors and outdoors.

It is my dream 'To tread the boards' at the Globe one day.

I would also like to bring the style of old Black and White movies such as Hitchcocks work to the stage. I am a huge fan of Suspense Thrillers..

The Donmar is one my favourite Theatres in London..

One of my favourite stage plays in the west end to date was People Places and Things. I thought the writing was acceptional and very honest, Denise Gough who played the lead blew my mind!

One of my favourite actresses is Michelle fairley who for me, has set the bar when it comes to the craft of acting.
My aim is to be as good as her one day! (I live in hope!)
Additional skills:
Dance
Boxing

Additional information:
My first love is Theatre....
It was watching Kate O' Mara as a child on stage playing 'Kate' in a production of 'Taming of the Shrew' that I knew Acting was what I wanted to do.

Though theatre's my first love, I am also interested in Screen.
I love dark tales about what it is to be 'Human' and 'Alive'. I am drawn to stories with an edge, where the storytelling blooms out of the cinematography. I love cinematography that is stark, beautiful, visually clean, that has an innocence and an honesty to it with traces of hope interwoven.

Films such as ''A single man'' 'Carol'' ''My Blueberry Nights.''

I also like old Black and white movies such as 'Rear window' 'Gas Light' and 'Whatever happened to baby Jane' a firm favourite simply because of both actresses performances.

I love working with artists who's minds think outside the box and working with people who like to collaborate and work as a team.

Genres I am drawn to are,

Drama's, (I especially love the era of the 40's) Film Noir, Neon Noir. Sci Fi, Suspense Thrillers, Dramadies especiallly British Black comedies. Such as 'Brassed off' and 'Little Voice' to name a few.

I am a fan of Alfred Hitchcock, Mike Leigh, Stephen Daldry and Wong Kar-wai's work amongst others.

As an actor, I am generally drawn to character roles which require me to transform which I love to do and embrace fully.


I would love to play a part in the future where Its required I learn Martial Arts......and I have always wanted to play 'Ripley' in 'Aliens' which is my all time favourite Sci Fi movie.

I am a huge fan of Sylvester Stallone and the Rocky Movies.

Very simply.....

''it aint how hard you hit its about how hard you can get hit and keep moving ''

I like to travel and hope I to do more combined with doing what I love, Acting....
