My career in the Australian Entertainment industry has spanned over 30 years from when I first performed at the ‘Logies’ at the young age of 17. Since then I have worked in theatre and television as a dancer, choreographer and presenter as well as making numerous guest appearances on a variety of popular household shows broadcast in Australia and abroad. My international choreographic credits include some of the world’s largest stadium shows such as the Sydney Olympics, the Manchester Commonwealth Games and the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. Having choreographed hundreds of commercials, corporate events and musicals including the Australian Productions of ‘Hairspray’ and ‘Hair’ my career has been diverse and rewarding.
