What I do...

In a nutshell: I design, build and perform puppets for TV and film.  I am, at present, the only female TV puppeteer working in this capacity - going from a pitch to design, build, perform and co-ordinate for TV puppetry and practical FX for film and TV in the UK.

​

I work with artists, directors, film makers, creative agencies, and theatres to design, build, perform high quality puppets and practical FX to fit their project and budget.  For larger projects I am also able to draw together and co-ordinate some of the best talent that the UK has to offer.

​

I do this using a range of techniques which I have developed from working as a freelance maker and performer within the entertainment industry for over a decade.  In addition to learning how to build puppets, creatures and practical FX I have also had to learn how to get the best possible performance out of them on camera.  To this end I have recently completed training at the widely revered Curious School Of Puppetry as part of my ongoing dedication to my personal development.

​

 Previous clients & productions that I have worked with include: CBBC, Sky 1, Netflix, ITV, BBC Wales, Iron Maiden, Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa, The Handspring Puppet Company, Kneehigh Theatre, Cadburys, Thinkbox, John Lewis, Jam Baxter & Rag'N'Bone Man, and numerous commercials.

​

Further more I have began to make my own content - the latest of which is my first ever short film that I wrote and directed entitles "Diomysus: More Than Monogamy" which has won 11 awards internationally, been broadcast on BBC3, and was nominated for BAFTA Breakthrough at the 2023 BAFTA Cymru Awards.
