I was born in New York, got a BSc in Theatre in the US and then moved to Paris where I lived and sang for 14 years before coming to the UK. While in Paris, I worked as a teacher and marketing assistant in addition to singing at various clubs and events. I started standup comedy and voiceover work while living in London and now I love everything that I do!

Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

I got started singing in Paris, and I loved singing French songs too. I was volunteering for a mental health charity when friends told me I should do comedy (me telling them my life stories!) so I began standup comedy in London. I'd always wanted to do voiceovers and video presenting so I started that over lockdown. Now I love doing all of it! I'm also trilingual - fluent in French and Spanish, thanks to 2 husbands (sigh). I've sung on top of tables, boats and bars, done standup in club basements, sang spoof songs at garden parties and large corporate events, and now that my kids are grown I'm ... ready for anything!
