“Music has always been an integral part of my life. I have played violin and piano since I was 5, and fell in love with singing when performing as Carlotta in a production of The Phantom of the Opera at 14. Since then, I’ve immersed myself in all things opera, and recently set up my company ‘The Opera Collective’, which brings together like-minded musicians to put on concerts and productions that are accessible to all.
Cheshire born and raised, I am a huge foodie who also loves traveling, writing, theatre, art and interior design. In my spare time, I love to read, to cook and play D&D with friends and when home, go on long walks with my family and beautiful black Labrador Harvey.”
