Throughout my four years training, I developed my acting skills, whilst also discovering a passion for Modelling, Directing and Producing. I was involved in multiple performances and projects in class and in societal groups, one being successful enough to be accepted into the National Student Dram Festival. In my final year I formed my own company - Three Bees, Producing, Directing and Performing in 'Bound' at Guildford School of Acting in July 2022 and then at The Etcetera Theatre - Camden in November 2022. Whilst training I also was involved in multiple showcases, playing variety of different roles and venturing into TV and Film. I have also worked behind the scenes on various shoot so have a generous understanding of the tight time schedule and professionalism required for a film shoot. I am really looking to develop my skills further as feel that this opportunity would greatly help me. I am an incredibly passionate and hardworking individual. Show less
