Performing
Bringing stories to life through voice and movement.
As a performer, I have spent over a decade on stage in theatre, festivals, and opera. From youth theatre productions to large-scale performances, I thrive in the intersection of music and storytelling. My performance work is shaped by a deep understanding of vocal expression, movement, and emotional connection, creating experiences that resonate with audiences.
