ABOUT ME
Since a very young age, I have always been fascinated by writing, and telling stories, with my first love coming in the form of poetry, which I had recognised by the poet laureate, Carol Ann Duffy. I also have a poetry page on Instagram which I have published over 70 poems to.
As I got older I discovered real love for acting, working at Hollyoaks as an extra on over 50 episodes (2014-present) and working as a lead role in adverts for both Nintendo (2018) and CocaCola (2019) with the online versions of the adverts gaining a cumulative 2,000,000+ Views.
As well as acting I also have become further fascinated in new elements of writing, having written articles for both Music Gateway and The Delegate Wranglers in 2020. I have written four short screenplays, one of which ("Sharks") was entered into this years Shore Short Film Fund competition.
