I do not consider myself an actress in the traditional, mainstream sense. I see myself more as a performer and a creative practitioner, and that is what this website is dedicated to.
However I do have a side that simply loves films and fantasizes about being directed by such geniuses such as Tim Burton, Marry Harron, Ken Loach, Kimberly Peirce, Pedro Almodóvar, Mike Leigh and Guillermo del Toro.
Therefore I have given in and acquired a Spotlight profile and I keep chasing that side of my dream.
On this page you can find out more about the film projects I have been involved in so far.
