Years Acting:      Well I started at the age of 7!

Where you initially learnt your skills?     I was born a loud mouth show off

What are the most memorable moments in your acting career to date?    Playing Lady Bracknell in ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ with Rat Productions outdoors at the Winterbourne Gardens in 2005. Also getting a chance to act crazy in a play at the crescent theatre

What made you decide to be in the Pied Piper II?    One of my best friends co-wrote and is directing it so I wanted to be a part of it.

Give a short but complete description of your character:     Loud, bossy and controlling (I believe I am type-cast)

When did you know that you wanted to be an actor?    When I realized pretending is far more fun than real life!!

Funniest joke you can think of on the spot?   My fave joke is – two biscuits are walking down the road – one says to the other “Where do you live?” The other replies “I’m not telling you, you might steal my washing!” (If you knew / or know me – that says it all!)
