I’m a versatile triple-threat performer currently completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Dance) at the Victorian College of the Arts. I have a full vocal range (D3–F6) with a strong musical theatre/pop belt and a grounded lower register, bringing dance-led performance quality to every role. My training spans commercial, street jazz, contemporary, ballet, and musical theatre, with strong partnering experience. Recent credits include & Juliet (May U/S, Player), Rizzo (Grease), and Danielle (Bring It On), alongside major Melbourne gala performances. I’m drawn to high-energy ensemble storytelling and collaborative rehearsal rooms where musicality, precision, and character depth matter. As both a performer and choreographer (Lyrebird Award-nominated), I approach work with spatial awareness, attention to detail, and natural ensemble instinct. Fluent in English and French, I’m particularly drawn to bold, contemporary musical theatre that blends athleticism with character-driven storytelling. Non-Equity. AUS/UK citizen.
