I am an actor/writer for screen/theatre based in Dublin. I am a co-founder of Chaos Factory theatre company with Rachel Bergin and Venetia Bowe. I am also the co-founder of Two Sparks, a film and television company with Kate Gilmore.
As an artist, I am dedicated to making ambitious, contemporary theatre that experiments with form. I am most interested in creating work through collaborative processes and work that is physically led.
I don’t have a singular methodology, but am always excited to find a new one for every new project. For me, each creative process is an opportunity to investigate a new way of working or new collaborations.
The body is the thing. Move move move dance dance dance play.
I love to move and most projects I create have physicality or movement at the centre of them.
I am endlessly excited about the possibilities of live performance. The presence of the audience and exploring the relationship between performer and spectator. My relationship with theatre is constantly evolving but ultimately, I believe in its power to connect people, to understand the chaotic world we live in and to build a community in a particular space on a given night.
I am also very interested in screenwriting. My ambition with this is to tell bold, female-led, Irish stories. I recently completed my first feature film and have a number of other projects for screen in development.
Performing is at the heart of everything I do.
I am also a qualified personal trainer and work as a fitness instructor in a gym.
