My modelling career began when i was asked to take part in Catwalk Shows for charity at University. "Passion for Fashion" raised money and awareness for both Fair Trade and the "Make Poverty History" campaign, and was a huge success at universities Nationwide, including my own; The University of Birmingham.

I have worked with Photographers in order to add to my portfolio, which most recently included working with up and coming photographers, make up artists, stylist and hair stylists in Covent Garden, London. The shoot worked like any high fashion magazine shoot, and although it was extremely hard work, i loved every second of it and would love to do more work like this! The photos came out great and were a success for all!

I was also chosen to model for a project called "Green Knickers" (www.greenknickers.org) which has received nationwide coverage in magazines and press, which is very exciting! This includes Vogue.com, Drapers Magazine and Figleaves.com (homepage and brand page) amongst many others.

Television experience

I took part in a documentary about attending Theatre School when i was 14 / 15 with my old school; The British National Theatre School. I was one of three to be followed around by the cameras and interviewed in my own home.

Music experience

I sing with a successful professional 5 piece function band based in London / Kent, named Firefly! With Firefly i get to sing anything from pop, to rock, to soul, to power ballads, to disco to absolute cheese!! This can be music anywhere from the 50's to the present day. We have performed at prestigious venues such as The Landmark Hotel in Marylebone, London, and may others throughout London, the Home Counties and the South East. You can visit our website at www.kentband.org.uk - there are some demo's on there as well as a list of most of the songs currently in our repertoire. Through this band i have also started to sing in a duo / trio called GloWorm. We do similar songs but as a vocalist, 1/2 backing vocalists, a guitarist and percussionist on the djemba when required. We like to play a much more diverse repertoire of music as well as popular music whilst putting an original twist on things.

I have singing grades and had singing lessons for 5 years. Through these lessons, i performed in many festivals and soirees. Musical Theatre is my main passion. I have performed in many shows. Recently, i have played one of the leads - Kate McGowan - in Titanic! The Musical with the West Wickham Operatic Society, at The Churchill Theatre, Bromley and Jennifer, the juvenile lead, in The Witches of Eastwick with the same group at the same theatre. Most recently, i played the title role (Genevieve) in The Bakers Wife by Stephen Schwartz at the Bob Hope Theatre. I have also just received a Musical Theatre Bursary from the BBC Performing Arts fund to help me cotinue my coaching.

I have recently sung with an Originals band called The Few. We make what we like to call "sophisticated pop". Our first gig (Feb 07) was at the Tunbridge Wells Forum in a small festival called Moosefest.

I am very confident with singing and performance and have good microphone technique. I am used to entertaining an audience with varying tastes and love performing and singing!

Magazine experience

I have appeared in magazines nationwide as a model for the project "Green Knickers".
