I am a Sheffield-based actor and singer whose performance journey began at fifteen, when I joined the Chesterfield Gilbert and Sullivan Society. My stage debut was in Iolanthe, where I played a non-singing monkey, humorously depicting the evolution of man from ape.

What may have seemed like a small role at the time proved to be a defining moment. From the instant I stepped on stage, I felt a connection to performance that has never left me. That first experience sparked a lasting passion for storytelling, live theatre, and the shared energy between performer and audience.
