Actor & Creature Performer
A Welsh actor, creature performer and movement specialist based in London.
As an actor, I trained at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
Multilingual from a young age, I speak Welsh, French, Spanish and English.
My screen work has been seen on the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, 5, Sky, Amazon Prime and at the cinema. I have two projects for release in 2025 - keep your eyes peeled.
On stage, I have performed all over the UK and Internationally. I was nominated for an OffWest End Award for Starcrossed, a parallel story to Romeo and Juliet in which I played every role besides Tybalt and Mercutio (but including Juliet). Check out some reviews below!
In a previous life, I was also a comedian and Sublime, my debut comedy hour, was performed at the Brighton and Edinburgh Fringes in 2019. BBC Wales filmed it for their programme Wales at the Edinburgh Festival.
