Biography

As a young and aspiring student at the prestigious Hurst Lodge School, a renowned institution for ballet and drama, she embarked on a journey that would ultimately shape her future and ignite a passion for the performing arts. Initially, her aspirations lay in becoming a professional ballet dancer, with the school's esteemed program providing a solid foundation for her to hone her skills and build her confidence.

However, after completing her studies at Hurst Lodge, she briefly attended Cobham Hall girls' school in Kent, where she continued to nurture her artistic talents. Although her time at Cobham Hall was relatively short-lived, it was during this period that she began to explore other creative avenues and broaden her horizons.

Subsequently, she transitioned to a boys' school in Bryanston, Dorset, where she discovered an impressive theatre that would play a pivotal role in her development as a performer. It was within the walls of this theatre that her natural aptitude for acting began to emerge, and her decision to pursue a career in the performing arts became increasingly clear.

Throughout this formative period, she was drawn to the school's vibrant arts scene, which provided her with a platform to express herself, take risks, and refine her craft. As she navigated this transformative chapter in her life, she was able to solidify her passion for the performing arts and lay the groundwork for a successful and fulfilling career in the years to come.

After the successful completion of her academic pursuits, she dedicated a substantial period of two and a half years to refining her artistic skills at the renowned Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, a prestigious institution that has been a hub for nurturing the talents of numerous accomplished thespians. Following her time at RADA, she made a triumphant professional stage debut in a captivating production of William Shakespeare's timeless masterpiece, "A Midsummer Night's Dream", at the esteemed Regents Park Open Air Theatre, where she brought to life the endearing character of Helena with remarkable aplomb. Her impressive performance was soon followed by her poignant portrayal of Diana in the thought-provoking play "Ring Around the Moon", which subsequently embarked on a thrilling tour of the Middle East, showcasing her versatility and range as a talented actress.

As the years went by, her unwavering dedication to the stage remained unwavering, with a further twelve months of performances in various productions under her belt, prior to making her television debut in the captivating mini-series "Queenie".

Following this milestone, she landed a modest role in the film "Maurice", a notable achievement in her burgeoning career. Subsequently, she secured a pivotal role in the BBC's esteemed adaptation of Charles Dickens' timeless novel "A Tale of Two Cities", bringing to life the character of Lucy Manette amidst the picturesque French backdrop, where the film was meticulously shot on location.
