Educational Background

• BA (Hons), Dance Performance, Choreography & Teaching, Preston College Dance (accredited by the University of Derby) 
• PGCE, Performing Arts, University of Bolton, UK 

I joined BIS Hanoi in August 2024, having previously taught at Oulder Hill Leadership Academy in Rochdale, UK. I have experience teaching in the public sector and have also taught in private theatre schools as a Lead Dance Teacher. 

I trained at Preston College Dance and I’m thrilled to be able to teach Performing Arts here at BIS Hanoi. I most look forward to working with students during rehearsals for our school productions.

In my free time, I love to go to the theatre and I also enjoy yoga and fitness.
