Overview

I offer a truthful, memorable performance for any character on stage and screen. I’m Australian so I have an Aussie accent but I can do American, British, Irish and more. I have singing training, acting for stage and screen training, improv training, immersive theatre training and birthday party experiences. I can perform for hours on end without loosing enthusiasm or energy and will add great diversity and professionalism to every performance.

I can also do a Steve Irwin impersonation.
