Born in England, I graduated from the Victorian College of the Arts in 1980. I have had an extensive career as a performer appearing in many productions.

In the 1970's I was a member of Theatre Projects (Melbourne) under the direction of James McCaughey.

In 1980 I co-founded Theatre Works (Melbourne) and worked with the company in many capacities including actor, director, choreographer and as part of the artistic directorate.

I have worked for Playbox and other companies in Melbourne, Perth and Canberra.

Since moving to Adelaide in 1990 I have worked for Magpie, South Australian Writers Theatre, Springboard and Doppio Theatro. I have also worked in film and television, most recently in Rolph de Heer and Heather Rose's film Dance Me To My Song.

I have recently resumed my work as performance maker with funding from the Australia Council (1998) and ArtSA (1999).
