Age: 20

Where are you from? I’m from Banbury, but live in Birmingham

I am currently… in my second year studying BA English and History of Art.

I am a LEAP Ambassador because… I am eager to diversify my work experience and learn more about the behind the scenes of a successful, renowned dance company.

What are you passionate about? I am passionate about the arts, particularly promoting their personal and wider benefits, as well as the importance of equal access.

Interesting fact about me: I started dance classes when I was three years old at Sharon Green Academy of Theatre and Dance, where I now occasionally help teach ballet classes.

My first encounter with Birmingham Royal Ballet was… as a child, going to see a production of The Nutcracker at Christmas. I was entranced by the incredible dancers, ambiance and set.

My favourite ballet is… Romeo and Juliet, because I love the dramatic music by Prokofiev, stunning costumes and evocative choreography and storytelling.
