Acting experience

    Union memberships:
Equity

schoolplays! And presenting almost every day live on air for the last 3 years! - You have to be able to act with complete composure no matter what is happening behind the scenes or being said in your talk back! I look at my job as the boot camp of television - almost like being in the trenches, after live and unscripted shows everything else i do is so relaxed

Television experience

    I've worked full time for 4 years in London presenting a daily alternative lifestyle morning show.I also present "Shortcutters"-showcasing independent film & music videos.I've worked on ITV & ITV2, legal TV & been a main contributer on the BBC2.I'm often asked to give magazine interviews regarding my life experinces & views in Magazines such as Marie Claire(twice)Cosmopolitan(2007),The Evening Standard,Psychology Magazine(2007)Ministry Mag, Company(2007)-to name a few.I was discovered when"Lion Production"produced & aired(ITV2)an 8 week series about woman who ran very successful companies in & around london clubs & nightlife.Since working in TV I have researched, written,presented & produced various vox pops for different shows on SKY & have chosen subjects close to my hear or am interested in (including behind the scenes at London fashion week, interviews with renouned Graffiti artists,& interviewing music artist giants like kele le Roc)I would love to carry on in this kind of work combining my past & present careers which involve writing press releases,running my own art gallery (loft303) organising club events for up to 2000 people on a regular basis & working in fashion-W magazine, Christian Lacroix, Louis Vuitton & buying for Ninna Ricci.I was adopted from the borders of Afghanistan at 5 days old by a British Diplomat & famous MI6 Spy (check out the book Spy Catcher!) I grew up in the country surrounded by artists including my wonderful father who once retired became a very well known playright for BBC radio4. This upbringing gave me a thirst for all things new while celebrating & respecting tradition & style.I feel I can apply the skills Ive learned in these other industries to behind the scenes as well as in front, on television & radio. I enjoy paying attention to the small details that make the events & work I've been involved in stand out from the crowd. I hope to continiue learning & improving in the media.
