Working with me:

I’m keen to collaborate. Whilst I’m most experienced in acting for stage and screen, I’m really interested with working on any arts project that sheds light on the disability community and raises awareness and advocates for inclusivity and diversity. Art creates community and connection. I’m trying to find ways to connect with this community so get in touch and let’s make stuff.
