As an actress and poet I perform regularly and I have developed huge respect and love for the human voice with which we can all transform the everyday word. Ideas become powerful when we engage in using our voice with feeling to describe a range of passions and our needs. I have a long-term business background, with a Master's degree, which is an additional benefit to my business-oriented clients as I have a lot of experience in presenting complex material with confidence and clarity. I also understand the constraints and needs of commerce and how that might affect a project.
My own work - The Chill Meditation series - has now downloaded over 300,000 times making me the U.K.'s number one provider of guided relaxations and, at one time, number One in the USA's health charts. In addition,I am the author and voice of the "Great Confidence for . . . ." series which has been widely acclaimed. I regularly write and record for a number of clients and am willing to travel to designated studios worldwide.
