I am a freelance teacher who regularly hires at Dancexchange and runs Open Class on Friday evenings. I also use DanceXchange for private coaching sessions. I trained at Tring Park and then went onto dance with Dikosmos in Melbourne Australia.

I worked in Tokyo for former Royal Ballet Principal Dancer Teddy Kumakawa at K Ballet. I have been teaching faculty for Tring Park, Elmhurst, Bird College and Bodyworks. I currently teach for Birmingham Royal Ballet, MADD College, cover teacher for The Royal Ballet Associates and Ballet Mistress for Midland Theatre Ballet.  I am Co Founder Of OPES International Summer School and Artistic Director of Malvern Ballet Seminars.

I am a freelance choreographer and my greatest achievement is choreographing for the Hollywood film 47 Ronin starring Keanu Reeves.
