So what are you then?...

Well, I’m an actor. But not just an actor, I’m a writer, a theatre maker and a voiceover artist...I’m also a deviser and collaborator specialising in working with learning disabled and autistic artists…oh and I’m a filmmaker too. It was after finishing this incredibly long sentence and pausing for breath, I realised that I should probably find a place to share myself and all of the wonderful creative things I do with the world. So here it is: my oeuvre.

Inspired by writer-performers such as Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Michaela Coel and Milly Thomas, I’m hugely passionate about continuing to break the mould for women in theatre and strive to tell female led stories that address important social issues. In 2015, I co-founded Loquitur Theatre, a company focusing on achieving greater gender balance throughout the industry.

…Complaining about a problem without proposing a solution is called ‘whining’…

Passionate about equality and inclusivity, I regularly work as a freelance theatre-maker and collaborator with award winning theatre company, Access All Areas – creating urban, disruptive performance for learning disabled and autistic artists. In 2018 I co-founded The BareFace Collective, a disabled theatre company dedicated to putting artists with disabilities centre stage.

With an ever growing to do list, I realise this will most probably have to be written on my tombstone if it’s ever to get finished. When I’m not busy creating theatre, watching theatre, hanging out at gigs and drinking pints in pubs, you’ll find me perfecting my headstand or gorging on some form of nut butter.
