I was born and raised in west London. My mother was a nurse and so is my sister.

When I was at school the careers teacher told us all to write a list of ten things we’d like to do for a living. I’ve been working my way down the list ever since…Acting was number 8.
Can you tell us your career highlight?
There have been quite a few highlights, but performing Strutting and Fretting has certainly been one of them.
What can an audience expect when they come to see Strutting and Fretting?
More than anything, I think Strutting and Fretting is a very honest piece. In the past people have said that it’s very funny and occasionally quite shocking.
