Actor and writer, with years of experience in a range of performance!
Methodology
I am able to give lessons to young adults and children alike, I have a wide approach to teaching which is flexible depending on age/experience. I'm very bubbly and enjoy my job, my personal style of theatre focuses on solo performance.
Experience
I am currently studying a BA in theatre. I've taught in schools and for theatres for five years, employed on freelance and regular basis. I've taught hundreds of children to young adults in this time. I've had students work with me and then enter drama school - but also a gain of confidence from young people.

INTERESTS
I have an enormous interest in British film, television & theatre. My love of drama, the dark and comedy stems from several influences: Harold Pinter, Martin McDonagh, Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton, Sally Wainwright, Phoebe Waller - Bridge and Charlie Brooker. Music is a massive inspiration for me such as the theatrical storytelling of Kate Bush, Florence Welch and Matt Berry.
