About
I am an experienced puppeteer, actor and musical theatre performer hailing from Gadigal land Sydney, now living in Naarm, Melbourne. I’m passionate about puppetry as an art form and story telling device in commercial theatre. I have a keen interest in puppetry direction in commercial film, television and live production. I’m a drama and visual arts educator when I’m not performing and enjoy making theatre with and for young people.
