Before turning to comedy she was a backing singing on an Elton John arena tour, performed two shows in Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber's private theatre at his Sydmonton Court home, had a 'non sex' role in a gay porn film, starred in an acapella musical about public transport in a tunnel under London Bridge station and played Frida in no less than four Abba tribute bands.

Since embarking on her stand-up career, she made the finals of the Hackney Empire New Act Of The Year competition in 2008 and won The Soho Theatre One Night Stand Up Award.
