About Me

A performance interpreter with 18+ years’ experience across live music and comedy, I specialise in translating musicality, tone and emotion, creating access that feels clear, natural and in sync with the performance.

My approach combines reflective practice with real-world performance experience, supporting interpreters to develop confidence, stage presence and their own authentic performance style.
