Favourite IM show or role: The First Four with Tim Redmond – performing this feels like performing a real play but you get to make up the plot!

Comic inspirations: Robin Williams, The girls from Broad City

My little secret: I often indulge in a little cheeky messina after a show to reward myself after performing! See you there ;)
