As a passionate advocate for the power of musical theatre to inspire and transform, I am dedicated to helping students find their artistic voice and develop their craft in a collaborative and supportive environment. With a First-Class Honours degree in Applied Performance (Community and Education) from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, my teaching approach is informed by both a strong academic foundation and real-world experience in the 

performing arts.

With over 10 years teaching experience, I’ve had the privilege of working across multiple facets of musical theatre—both on stage and in educational settings—gaining valuable insights into the craft and the industry. These experiences allow me to focus on nurturing technical proficiency, emotional authenticity, and creative risk-taking.

I am passionate about providing students with a well-rounded education that not only hones their vocal, physical, and acting skills but also empowers them to engage with their community and the wider world through performance. By creating a space where creativity thrives and collaboration is at the core, I encourage students to embrace challenges and push boundaries in their artistic journey.

My ultimate goal is to inspire students to become confident, resilient, and dynamic performers—ready to take on the stage and the world beyond.
