Jo's Profile

Experience Summary

I'm a trained actress, who graduated from RSAMD 7 years ago with a 1st class honours degree. I've been lucky enough to sustain a career in theatre, television and voice over work and when there isn't work available I have a great time working in the promotions industry. It's a brilliant 2nd career I can fit around my acting work and it's enjoyable and challenging. My other interests include singing, writing and long distance running. I think my biggest achievement is to be able to say i am still working in my chosen career 7 years after graduation as, it's an extremely tough industry and a lot of people give up in the first five years! I believe the commitment and dedication i give to my acting is applied to all aspects of my life, making me determined to succeed in any role i'm given.
