Changes.

This blog is beginning as I start a new chapter in my life. I am finding myself going through changes both professionally and personally. Starting the BAPP at Middlesex University is something I have thought about a lot since graduating from Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts in 2011. Finally I find myself at the right time in my life to be able to resume studies and evaluate my career so far.

Moving to London six and a half years ago, the day after I turned eighteen, was a huge step for me. The course I did at Italia Conti (3year National Diploma in Performing Arts) taught me a lot about the performing arts industry and about myself as a person. Now almost four years later my experiences out in the world of work have again moulded me into a different version of myself. I have developed different ambitions and set myself new goals. Gaining this degree is one of them.

I have always had a passion for working with children and sharing my love of the arts. I believe the arts can give children a real boost in their confidence and learning abilities. Everyone responds to different types of learning after all. In gaining this degree I open myself up to more opportunities as a teacher as well as a performer. I will be working on this degree alongside my job as a drama teacher for a children's theatre school based in North London. I am excited to get started.
