Notes

I spent my formative years in the regional NSW town of Mullumbimby with my three siblings riding bikes or horses and dancing/performing at every chance I got. My performances with Byron Ballet are most memorable, playing characters like Hermia in Midsummer Night's Dream and a Mirloton in The Nutcracker. I later studied drama at high school and performed in Midsummer Night's Dream again, only this time as Puck, another fantastic experience. During the 2019 and 2020 seasons, I was a member of the Byron Youth Theatre Company, with whom I toured NSW performing for high school students as a means to educate the youth on topics that are difficult to talk about (e.g., abuse, sexual health, relationships). Additionally, I am a passionate creative writer and an advocate for the environment/animals. I took part in an environmental leadership program in 2019 and starred in a theatre performance focused on protecting the environment.

My all-time favourite movies, remaining unchanged since I was child: The Princess Bride and Groundhog Day.
