APA is one of my proudest achievements. I had this crazy idea up that I could open a Theatre School and with support from family (especially Aunty Barbara) and friends telling me I would be mad not to, I’ve done it!!!

Every single child that has walked through the doors of APA has inspired me.

My aim for APA is to create opportunities, I would love APA to enforce just how important the Arts are and for every child to be able to perform whilst building confidence and life skills. I have seen children who shy away from speaking grow into confident individuals speaking and singing in front of large audiences. Children making friends for life, children feeling that they can achieve anything and for me that is why I will continue to grow APA creating opportunities for everyone.

I want to take this time to thank everyone in my APA family, you guys are awesome I could not do this without you and to every APA child you are the reason I do this, each and everyone of you is AMAZING.
