You might have heard me around and about - I’ve appeared in a long list of Radio 4 dramas, The Archers, a bunch of TV commercials, and a recent Channel 4 documentary; “The Alpine Hotel At Christmas”. I’m a former BBC Radio Drama Company member, a former BBC radio newsreader, and a Norman Beaton Fellowship winner too!

Fancy using my award nominated voice (warm, deep RP with optional native Manchester) for your project? Marvellous. Do have a listen to some of the bits and bobs below, and get in touch for a chat!

PS: Need a child voiceover? I’ve got one of those! He’s a cracking little actor, and you can listen to him below too.

Actor

“Creative, intuitive, and an energy level which makes her a delight to work with.”
— Eloise Whitmore - Naked Productions

I played a whole range of 999 callers in “Vignettes” with HER Productions recently, and multi-roled all the ghosts in a high energy adaptation of A Christmas Carol at Hope Mill Theatre in Manchester. I was also in two shows as part of the Greater Manchester Fringe Festival last year - one was a hilarious parody of a ghost hunting TV Show (Almost Haunted), and the other one was “The Lie” by Helen Connolly, in which I played the lead.

A series I worked on for Radio 4 called Almonds and Raisins can now be heard on BBC Sounds (I play Rachel), and I’ve worked on lots of brilliant Radio 3 and 4 productions over the years… clips below and at https://app.spotlight.com/9735-8978-2273

Studio Information

My fully acoustically treated and sound proofed Studiobricks booth features a Neumann TLM193 microphone or Rode NT1A, Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 and facilities for remote direction using Zoom, Cleanfeed, Source Connect, Google Meet and others. I can provide finished, edited or unedited WAV or MP3 files via Dropbox, Wetransfer or any other large file sharing method with a very quick turnaround.

I also work closely with professional studios in Manchester and London if you’d prefer to direct in person.
