How did you come to performing audiobooks?

We did a bit of training for it in drama school, and when I graduated I cold emailed a bunch of people. Only one of them responded – Thomas Mis, a producer at Macmillan at the time, who gave me my first short story, and then introduced me to others in the biz! Such a joy to be able to combine my intense love of reading with my acting work… what an insanely special ‘day job’!!

Anything else you’d like a listener to know?

Life leads us on many unexpected journeys, and despite being swept down many roads over the years, I think I’m finally finding out how to keep my feet!
