Performing Arts has been my passion since I was three years old. Throughout my career as both a performer and a teacher, I have experienced first-hand the fantastic impact it has on young people, their confidence, their education, and development.

After studying for a Creative Studies and English Literature degree, I performed professionally in a number of touring productions. I went on to work with the Children's Theatre Company and for a time I worked with a Theatre in Education company in Holland.
