My first career was as a professional child actor. From the age of ten, I had roles in TV dramas on the BBC and ITV, in films and at theatres including the Royal Court. After graduating from Oxford with a degree in Mathematics and Philosophy, I began a career in online communications, consulting for a range of clients from the BBC to major banks. Since 2008, I've been in public service, using my communication skills to help people understand and manage their money.

I'm a graduate of the Faber Academy Writing a Novel course and a member of The Prime Writers.
