Any other information
I am an experienced character actress, usually concentrating on comedy but with a sideline in serious drama. I am busy with everything from the Bard, to more often impro, sketch and scripted comedy and stand-up.

I perform improvised comedy in weekly workshops and in fortnightly shows with 'The Institute'.

I won Fringe Report Best Actress (Sitcom Trials, December 2007) - Review "a powerful and oddly emotionally-moving performance as monotoned bitter Cockney Connie (The Good Guide)"

I am a Laughing Horse New Act Competition 2008 Quarter-Finalist. And So You Think You're Funny Semi-Finalist 2008.

So far in 2009, I am through to the Semi-Finals of Laughing Horse Competition. I have won the Comedy Cafe New Act Night and I have won the Lion's Den Gong Show.

I was nominated for Best Actress in the '2 Days of Laughter' Short Film Festival 2009.
Additional Skills
I have a 2:1 LLB Law Degree from LSE.
I am a trained barista.
I can juggle.
I have a full, clean driving license.
