I passionately believe storytelling can be a spellbinding and immersive entertainment. I aim to bring the tales of the past alive in the modern world in an enjoyable and educational way, helping the audience gain a new appreciation of the place we call home. I specialise in tales from Wales and being from Cwmavon in Port Talbot I grew up surrounded by Legend and Myth. There is nothing like a Good Welsh story told at the firepit at the heart of the forest to Stir the blood and awaken the imagination
