About me

I trained as an actor at Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff. I work in theatre, TV, film,radio and all areas of voice work. Recent work includes a year long world tour of "Mamma Mia" playing Tanya; a stint in "Coronation Street" as the understanding wife of a transsexual, and a season on the BBC Radio Drama Rep.
Additional skills:
I was raised on a dairy farm in Derbyshire and have interesting skills from such an upbringing - animal handling (cows, calves, sheep etc. and am fearless too); tractor driving; 4-wheel drive vehicles. Plus stage combat; elementary Italian which I love speaking.
Additional information:
I enjoy creating characters and working on accents and voices. I am unflappable and love a challenge, and am renowned for my calm, creative, warm approach. I am a good company member with 24 years of experience to share.
