I trained as an actor at GSA and specialised in movement at the Jacques Lecoq school in Paris.
I split my creative time between stage and digital performance.
I direct and movement direct for theatre, and work as a Performance Director for video games.
I'm a Creative Associate of award-winning theatre company curious directive
and a Movement Associate for The Mocap Vaults.
​
-
I have a unique standpoint between the creative outside eye and the role of the actor.
-
I'm interested in the overriding narrative and how best to tell that story.
-
I love to devise, to collaborate on the creation of something new. Be it a brand new idea with no words yet, or a classical piece in need of a new life.
-
I often focus through the lens of movement
-
I enjoy getting stuck in to improvisation and story boarding with theatre and digital companies; young and old.
