Areas I work in
Audiobooks
Voiceover
Character Work
I narrate almost everything from cozy mysteries to literary fiction and just about every world in between.
But to be more specific; my portfolio includes Historical mysteries, psychological thrillers, contemporary fiction, romance, rom-coms, romantasy, fantasy, sci-fi, horror, suspense, historical fiction, LGBTQ+ fiction, comedy, spicy romance and the wonderfully difficult-to-categorize stories that sit somewhere in between.
With 200+ audiobooks behind the mic - solo, duet, dual, multicast - plus audio dramas... I’ve played everyone from sharp-witted sleuths and society ladies to morally grey lovers, terrifying villains, ancient beings, mothers, monsters and characters you definitely wouldn’t want to meet in a dark alley.
I work with clients in all areas of VoiceOver production; from luxury and lifestyle to sports, entertainment, tech and global campaigns, I’ve lent my voice to brands including ESPN, Spotify, Shopify, Max Mara, Christian Dior, Disney and Warner Bros.
Commercials, in show narration, TV promos, trailers, brand films, corporate narration and everything in between, whether the brief calls for elegant and elevated, warm and conversational, bold and authoritative, or something with a little more edge, I bring an actor’s instinct to every read.
Great VoiceOver isn’t about simply having a great voice. It’s knowing exactly what to do with it and having years of dance training sustains me for long sessions on my feet.
From video games and animation to immersive storytelling in audio dramas and podcasts, I’ve stepped into the shoes of heroes, villains, mothers, monsters, warriors, aristocrats, AI, creatures — and everything wonderfully strange in between.
My character work includes projects across Warhammer 40,000, Disney and Warner Bros., bringing an actor’s instinct, an accent acrobat’s ear and a genuine love of play to every role.
Whether I’m creating a voice from scratch or finding the emotional truth inside an established world, every character gets their own rhythm, personality, history and heartbeat. Because the best character voices aren’t simply different they’re believable.
I'm a mum, wife, sister, friend. Actor first
storyteller always. Curious human behind the mic.

Because the best performances don't just come from technique, they come from being human
I’m bringing not only years of craft to the mic, but a lifetime of curiosity, experience and connection.
I’ve travelled, lived and studied in different countries, immersed myself in different cultures, listened to different languages and accents, and spent a lifetime fascinated by people, how they speak, how they behave, what they reveal and, perhaps more importantly, what they don’t.
All of that comes into the studio with me.
The places I’ve been, the people I’ve met, the joy, heartbreak, humour, chaos and wonderfully ordinary moments that make up a life. They give me somewhere real to reach when a character needs vulnerability, strength, rage, tenderness, wit or courage.
Training gives me the tools, experience gives me the instinct, curiosity keeps me searching for something new in every character I play.
