My journey into acting began as a high fashion model having been scouted on the West Coast of Ireland. I've since walked and shot many campaigns for fantastic brands :) My passion is acting and my typecast is sociopaths with a few narcissists thrown in for good measure. Leading roles, character roles and playing the occasional mi5 agent for tv or in feature films is my path at the moment. 2019 started playing a sociopath in an off Westend venue in London and quickly became a flurry of modeling shoots, auditions, webseries, short film in Ireland, premieres for features in Italy and Leicester Square with bookings for everything from adverts to corporates, short films and tv. No feature film roles this year so I've been editing one I'm writing although i did get to be crew on Bond and attend the wrap party which was fun! It's been a magical year for self development and learning about acting. Yoga, meditation, writing, travels, friends, grandma & love sustain me :D

Predominantly Film/TV/Short Films/Music Videos, and most recently a proliferation of Commercials which I love!

I loved presenting some corporate neuroscience based packages encouraging resilience and other individual attributes (confidence, high self esteem etc), as this was what my BSc was oriented towards at the University of London.

Have acted in theatrical productions in London - Everything In the Garden, The Dark Lady Speaks, etc, but my heart lies in film/tv. I want nothing more than to breathe life into characters, and share all the subtle nuances of that experience through the camera :).

I attend classes with Anthony Meindl's Actor Workshop in London and LA every week, and am a former student of Anna Schers in Improvisation, and LOVE them both :D
