Further explanations of your experiences

I am a dynamic, social and hard working person always looking for new challenges and experiences. I have a first class psychology degree amd am now pursuing my presenting career which I enjoy immensely. I love travelling to new places and meeting new people. I think its important to be happy when working and I like to incorporate as much fun as possible into what I do, making the best out of situations whilst maintaining a professional approach. I give 110% to everything I do! Skiiing and boarding are passions of mine and I practice when I can. I also enjoy keeping fit , by attending the gym, dancing, practicing yoga & swimming. I trained in boxing for a year and a half and am also currently doing a beginners course in fencing (like to try something different!!) WHAT MAKES ME STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD?.... When you meet me you can work that one out yourselves!

I have been successfully modelling for the last four years & have done a wide variety of work from Wedding magazines to FHM & from contact lenses to lingerie labels. I fronted an advertising campaign for La Senza lingrie which gained much publicity claiming I had "the best bottom in Britain" (although this is obviously a matter of opinion). I also did last years advertising campaign for Ripspeed, the current European campaigns for Aristocrat and Motorola and calenders for the reputable tyre company Metzler/Pirelli
In addition, I have modelled for TV shows such as This Morning and Baddiel & Skinner & done commercials for Land of Leather & Sky Sports. I also have much catwalk expereince from both fashion shows & show rooms together with extensive promotions & hostessing experience.
I have appeared in a range of publications e.g Daily Mail, Daily Star, Reveal Magazine, The Wedding Maagazine, FHM,Front, Ice. My measurements are 32C, 24, 34. Dress 8.
In addition I am a professional TV presenter most recetnly hosting for Challenge TV (please see profile).




Acting experience

I filmed a reality/spoof series for Sky One - "How Gay Are You?" where I played a stern but sexy teacher running an institution for a group of heterosexual guys.
I acted in a comedy series "Just for Laughs" BBC2 and an advert for a Sky games show Grab a Grand where I played a robber in the style of Charlies Angels! I have also done commercials for Sky Sports.
More recently I played a role in the BBC2 series Truth about Food and have just filmed the new series of Supermarket Sweep as a check out girl which is on ITV at present.

Many thanks




Television experience

I am an experienced, dynamic & vibrant presenter. I am confident with live television as I presented various interactive game shows on sky digital channels for over two years. This required constant enthusiasm, the use of producer talk back, live callers and sometimes interaction with a co-presenter. I also filmed adverts for these various shows using a combination of scripts & autocue and have recorded voice overs for freeview.
Poker has become a speciality of mine. I hosted the Showdown Poker Tour which involved presenting various scripted links, interviewing players & some general pieces to the live audience. We also filmed a poker school DVD using both scripts & adlib where I again interviewed experts & professionals & guided the lessons. I have also recorded news reports using autocue for Poker Zone and have most recently presented the Irish Open 2007 for Challenge TV. This again invovled scripted links & player interviews (also shown on the website).
I have also worked for Southampton TV doing various links from live sporting events to the studio & have roadshow expereince from a pilot I did for Men&Motors at the MaxPower Show. This involved spontaneous interviews with motor equipment manufacturers & models & filming from the main stage.
In addition I have recently appeared on the BBC2 series Truth about Food and filmed the new series of Supermarket Sweep with Dale Winton, airing on ITV.
I have a full presenting CV and show reel if required.




Dancing experience

I went to dance & stage school from the age of 6 to 18 by which point I had achieved a high standard in ballet, tap, modern and disco. I took part in many shows and competitions and loved performing. When starting at university i turned to street dance and choreographed a couple of urban festivals in Southampton for charity. They were group dances of between 8 to 20 people. Throughout my modelling career I have also danced in a couple of music videos for Rachel Stevens and Khia - "My Neck, My Back".
