Summary
I'm an emerging writer with a particular penchant for comedy and fantasy. I have been attending live theatre, especially comedy, since an incredibly young age. I love sharing stories, which has always been a huge part of my life, and have continued to be an avid reader and consumer of both television and film. Throughout my job experience outside of the industry, I have continued to exhibit an ability to adapt, engage and thrive whilst working. I am especially keen to learn all that I can as an enthusiastic opportunity-seeker!
