She has always been involved in the performing arts from a young age, acting since she was four and has trained at various institutions including stagecoach performing arts school and the royal Welsh college of music and drama. After finding her love for different cultures, she joined the BA world performance course at East 15 and is currently a first year student. Self proclaimed "proud geek" if you can't find her performing, she will likely be in her hand made cosplays at comic con, binging marvel, or playing dungeons and Dragons. In her spare time, she trains in Ariel hoop, pole dancing, stunt weapons and martial arts. She loves to tell stories, that would otherwise get overlooked or forgotten, and believes TV film and theater are great mediums for entertainment and education. Inspired by strong female characters, she hopes to one day inspire other young girls to achieve their dreams through her passion for performance.
