About Me
I’m a Scottish theatre-maker based in Glasgow, driven by female-led narratives, children’s theatre, and devising original work.
I trained at Emil Dale Academy, graduating with a First-Class BA (Hons) in Musical Theatre and learning from industry professionals including Beth Wilkinson, Jason Marc Williams, and Jessica Daniels. Since then, I’ve built a multifaceted career as a director, performer, and creative contributor, with experience spanning casting, marketing, and facilitation.
Alongside freelance work, I’m the Associate Director at Reconnect Theatres, where I run Reconnect Academies Youth School, direct their youth productions, and support the company’s professional output.
Directing, for me, is like putting together a jigsaw—finding the big picture while playing with all the little details that make a story work.
I’m especially drawn to female-driven stories and love exploring themes like relationships, women’s health, and the messy moments of growing up. I also love working with young people and getting more involved in children’s theatre, helping them discover their confidence and creativity. Collaboration is a huge part of my process, and I encourage actors to bring their ideas into the room so we can build something together. Whether I’m planning rehearsals, developing characters, or working with writers and creative teams, I aim to make theatre that feels thoughtful and welcoming to everyone involved.
