About me
I am a writer and an actor just on the verge of my career. I graduated with a degree in English Literature from the University of Cambridge in 2019 and since then have taken the time to travel the world, write and perform in my one woman show in London. I truly believe that through the medium of television, film, theatre and literature we can celebrate, explore and understand the human condition. In fact, I am incredibly passionate about the way we can find healing and consolation through these mediums. I know that I want to spend the rest of my life attempting to produce this for others, because I believe in the power of art and creativity in whatever form that might take.
