I belong on the stage. I bring energy to a show and can be the star attraction or blend and bring harmonies/support to the main act. It’s all about the team. I am a Board Member of my local YMCA, where I also volunteer. My passion for young people, performing and helping people drives me to create a better future and create art for those around me.

I am a Solo Artist working in venues across the country performing Cabaret style entertainment. I am booked well in advance an absolutely love my work.

I also have a great deal of experience with my previous function/wedding bands - from a 7 piece Jazz/Funk/ Soul outfit to a Grease Tribute Act (so much fun!) plus a few more standard function band set ups.

I have also sang at many weddings during the ceremony and have performed in various musical productions, both outwith my studies and during my time at The University of the West Of Scotland.I also studied at the RCS (formerly RSAMD) for two years before changing direction to Musical Theatre.

I have a strong sense of musicianship and love nothing better than being on the stage with a mic in my hand and seeing a crowd of happy faces.

TV & Reality

I got through to the live audition stage of X Factor (Glasgow) in 2012 which meant singing and performing live to around 8,000 people on the stage of the SECC Arena.

I was part of a duo called ‘Spotlight’, it was the time that Gary Barlow was ‘Head Judge and we got to sing two Take That songs to him and he loved them. That was pretty cool. It was a split panel and we didn’t get through. Was certainly an interesting experience and I loved it.

I have been part of various documentaries to do with my genetic condition (Classical Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) it’s rare and needs so much more awareness.
