Born and raised in South London to Southern Indian parents I have always marveled at the diversity of people and places.
At the age of 16 I chose to study at the United World College in New Mexico, USA.
After graduating high school I moved back to London to study Economics and Development Studies with honours, at SOAS University of London.
However, my passion for the arts triumphed leading me to complete a Masters in Acting at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts.
I have always loved to act, from the thrill on stage to the nuances of film. Although it has taken me longer to pursue it as a professional career, my life experience has only made me a bolder and more dedicated performer.

While studying at Mountview I was fortunate enough to receive intimacy training.
It felt like a natural segway from my dance background and is an area of the industry that needs continued support from all.
I prioritise the safety and wellbeing of actors above all and by creating a open and supportive environment I can bring the visions of directors to life.

I believe anyone can move, and through guided improvisation and direction, I can bring that out.
I use multiple movement practices to embolden the people I work with so they can better deliver the story of the piece.
My specialisation lies in Contact Improvisation, Ballet, Modern, and Jazz.
