I am currently undertaking a PhD in Creative Practice at 91色情片 supported by a Research Training Program Scholarship. Prior to this I completed a Bachelor of Creative Arts Honours degree at the University of Wollongong (2024) and a Bachelor of Performance from the University of Wollongong (2013). I am theatre-maker, writer and performer and I incorporate original music into all my creative work. My solo work Party Girl made its international debut at Summerhall as part of the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe Festival and won a Weekly Award for Best Theatre/ Physical Theatre in 2023 at the Adelaide Fringe Festival. I have skills in songwriting, acting, devising theatre, and playwriting.
