Introduce Yourself/Tell About Yourself: Hey! I’m a 19 year old performer based in south east london. I’m currently completing a BA(hons) in professional musical theatre and dance at Burd college. My passion is performing but I also enjoy going to the gym getting fit and all that kind of stuff. I also enjoy some extreme sports such as ski racing and rock climbing.

What Inspires You Every day? : People! Everyone around me has something special and unique about them. It’s important to acknowledge those things and maybe even aspire to replicate them in some capacity. Watching friends improve on a daily basis and achieve their dreams, makes me want to push further and achieve my goals.

What is some words of wisdom you live by?: I try to live on a line. If something good happens it’ll take me above the line. If something bad happens it’ll take me below the line. However, I believe you will always be pulled back to this line. So say something bad happened to me I can be optimistic in the feeling that something good will soon come. There maybe a wait before this happens but I believe I will always find myself back at this line.

What is your ultimate goal in life? : Thats a big question. Obviously I’d love to have a long performing career do cruises, maybe a west end/touring show or maybe even some TV work. But ever the future has in store for me I just want to be happy(as cringy as that sounds). So my ultimate goal in life is probably just to enjoy it to it’s full potential.

What are your thoughts on people who seek attention on social media, and what message would you like to give them? : I think social media can be both amazing and very harming. But I think everyone has something to share so It’s a brilliant place to voice opinions and change minds.

How would you help people around the world who are going through mental health problems? : I don’t really feel qualified to answer this. However, try and find something you love, a dream, a passion or a hobby and purse it to the best of your ablity.

How would you describe a better world for us all? : Just happier. Less pollution. Less fighting.

What else would you like to tell others about you or your life?: Nothing much really. I think i’ve covered everything.
