About me:
I am adaptable and can apply myself to most situations, being on stage nearly all my life. From my very first wiggle of my bottom, dressed up as a black poodle,(I was 4)It has taken me all over the world, not my wiggle (smile), the theatre and dance. I have worked in television in Japan, Philippines, Scotland & England. I went to Arts educational performing arts school in London. I have danced and choreographed all over the world, I have acted in BBC dramas, sung & danced in many theatres. I introduced the Milkshake keep fit championships in Scotland, and I ran my own Health company,here in England. I speak fluent French (lived there) My father was Italian so I speak that too. Although I have been out of the theatrical business for a few years I feel ready to start over. I enjoy an audience and I love the camera. I have just finished an advert for Steamist Shower Cabinets, (talking, not showering!) I guess that started me thinking that it would be great to refresh my career.

Family history reveals our family crest comes from a decentant kidnapped by bandits in the Abruzzi mountains and she never went back married the bandit leader and that is how we have a family crest, oh yes and an Italian priest (don) who was also part of the Italian resistance he was in both world wars... infact...well as I say there's stories to tell!
