I am a trained actor, writer and dramaturg from the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney. The course was jointly delivered by staff members from UNSW and the National Institute of Dramatic Arts (NIDA) During the course I was able to sit in classes at NIDA and helped out in their productions as my practical elements. I also studied under the then Head of Voice Studies at NIDA Mr Bill Pepper for several years. Some of my graduation assignments included a thesis on “Actors training in Australia” and an English stage adaption of a Hong Kong movie “Lost and Found”. I also completed a project with the NIDA Library, improving the searchability of their visual collection by adding the “genre” indexable tag to their catalogue items. The searchable tag was then later added to their audio collection after extremely positive responses from their students and staff.
Since I graduated I have participated in different stage and screen productions, including staging one of my own plays “Mother” with the Australian Film Institute award winner Tina Bursill. My screen credits included guest roles on Australian television dramas such as “All Saints” and “Sea Patrol”, also a role in the movie “The Home Song Stories” and a number of stage productions in Sydney and Perth. I was featured in a number of high profile brands such as Woolworths, Toyota, Forxtel etc. I was also one of the heats adjudicators for Short+Sweet Sydney for several years.
I have founded my own production label Havenough Production to produce my own work and work with liked minds along the way. I am also the coordinator of the group Diversity Casting Australia to promote diversity on Australian screen and stage.
