BIOGRAPHY
I trained at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School after gaining a degree in Drama and Theatre Arts at Birmingham University in 1986. Whilst continuing to pursue acting opportunities locally whenever possible, I was then a drama teacher/lecturer for 27 years before gaining an MA in Professional Voice Practice and training as a voice coach at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire - School of Acting in 2016. I completed Gary Terzza’s Voice Over Masterclass in 2015.
