She starred as Beth March in the 2017 BBC adaptation of Little Women.[2]
She was brought up in Penarth, went to school in Barry,[3] and trained at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama in Cardiff.[4] In 2018 she was nominated for the Best Actress award at the BAFTA Cymru awards ceremony, losing to Eve Myles.[5] She was nominated as one of Varietys "10 to watch".[6]
