I'm a very impatient person. I love dancing, I love music, and I love eating life.

Like a lot of people, I love a bit of blood and gore.

I love doing short films because they're much more intimate and there's far less waiting around than on the bigger films.

My love of music comes from as long as I remember. I begged my mum to learn piano for a year when I was 4; she wanted to make sure I was serious, and I wanted to be Chuck Berry when I grew up! We were a very musical family; my mum would play guitar, and her, my dad and aunt would sing and harmonize!

I've always loved projects where I can combine acting and music.

I need both music and acting to even think about surviving life. I don't have a choice.
