Hi there, I have enjoyed a busy 7 years in the performance industry with lead roles in Feature Films, Short films, Theatre and Musicals, as well as a number of supporting character roles and commercial performances. I have been fortunate enough to perform in most of the major theatres in Auckland and Wellington (New Zealand) and 45 Downstairs, Sydney Theatre Company and Sydney's Opera House (Australia).
