About Me

Hey there, thanks for stopping by! ➼
Welcome to my little slice of the internet. Originally from the North East, I spent eight calling London home before making my way back up to Durham last year. When I’m not at the theatre, you can probably find me in a coffee shop, indulging in cake and pretending I’m not thinking about my next meal.
