Seen on The Stand Up Sketch Show. Tour support for Russell Kane and Suzi Ruffell. Over 15 million likes on TikTok. Winner of Best Debut Show at Leicester Comedy Festival 2024. SYTYF 2022 runner-up. 'Delivery that commands the room and a no-nonsense outlook that gels into strong punchlines' (Chortle.co.uk).
