Throughout the years, I've participated in a variety of amateur musicals, playing roles as Sweaty Eddie in Sister Act, Audrey Two in Little Shop of Horrors, and numerous lead parts with the Chesterfield Gilbert and Society. My first significant lead role was at around twenty, portraying Francis Fryer in Calamity Jane with Matlock Operatic Society. I later took on characters like Will Parker in Oklahoma, Lucentio in Kiss Me, Kate, and Freddie Esford-Hill in My Fair Lady. I will always cherish the moment I sang On the Street Where You Live on stage and realized, “This is where I belong.”

In 2020, I made the decision to fully embrace my passion by returning to college to pursue a Performing Arts foundation degree. Juggling my studies with a part-time job as an MOT tester was challenging, but it instilled in me the importance of persistence and hard work. After completing my foundation degree, I earned a BA (Hons) in Acting and Performance at Sheffield Hallam University, where I stepped out of my comfort zone and focused on honing my acting skills and growing as a performer.
