A funny onion.

Originally from bonny Northumberland, the single thread through my career so far has been character work.

Whether that's with my voice, my face OR my voice and face.

So if you're looking for playful creative

with a penchant for puns?

Look no further!

'I want to make people laugh'.

Ten years later, my passion remains the same.

I have a wealth of experience making funny and collaborative family theatre, including working as Co-AD of Curly Tales.

You can count on me to play a silly Teeside Knight, a Mancunian vinegar sniffer and a Scottish Rabbit.

Like the mad toadstool that I am, 2024 saw the beginnings of a brand new show.

'Who stole the Christmas Pud?'

It was a one woman piece: heavily interactive, filled with laughter and ridiculous hats, all touring around Yorkshire and the North East.

Guess what?

IT'S COMING BACK THIS CHRISTMAS.

Stay tuned for tickets right here:

For almost a decade I've dabbled in the world of audio.

I. LOVE. IT.

In fact, my first gig out of drama school was Stannington- a BBC Radio 4 drama set up in Northumberland.

I've been training to jump into the world of Animation as I find it the most imaginative place in the audio world right now.

Making it up is harder than it looks.

But improvising is the most liberating and exciting practise as an actress.

Anything Could Happen host a quarterly show in Leeds for children. They come up with the bonkers ideas, characters and situations. We respond!

You can only imagine the hilarious chaos that ensues.

The first time I sat and watched Murder Inc on stage, I was blown away.

Pure magic. There was almost telepathy between the performers.

As of 2025, I've been asked to join the troupe!

To say I'm excited is an understatement. I'm absolutely blown away.

I'm training up with the best Improvisers in the North and loving every minute!

Lots of different things make me chuckle. Religious political views, woo-woo conartists and nasty power hungry people.

So what to do?

Well, I've started making sketches that tickle my funny bone and putting them onto YouTube.

We all need a laugh right now, don't we?
