I am a professional actress and have worked with companies such as the National Theatre, RSC, The West Yorkshire Playhouse, The Young Vic and The Royal Exchange Theatre. Television work includes "The Bay", "Slow Horses", "Riot Women", “Vera” “Happy Valley”and " A Very British Scandal". I am a regular contributor to BBC Radio Drama. I am also a professional theatre director specialising in new work.
I am a qualified Feldenkrais movement practitioner which greatly helps my understanding of movement nuance in an acting context.

My work with groups includes workshops in prisons, hospitals (particularly mental health units), offices, schools, museums and adult learning centres. I have experience of tutoring people for whom English is a second language and I also have experience of working with students who are dyslexic.
