About

I’m a mezzo-soprano musical theatre performer with strong dance technique, piano skills, and a passion for character-driven musical theatre. Recent roles include Dionne (HAIR), Mimi (RENT), and Snow White/Assistant Director (Into the Woods) with Bangalow Theatre Company, and Claudia in A Midsummer Night’s Queen (Drill Hall Theatre Company). Screen credits include Elvis and Ticket to Paradise. I bring strong ensemble instincts, physical storytelling, and cross-cultural training from Japan and Australia.
