Acting and Writing

Acting

I fell in love with acting around the same time that I became disabled, and have never known one without the other. I treasure the unique bonds I get to make with every character I play, and keep up with my craft by studying weekly under an acting studio.

​

Most recently seen as Freya in Season 1 of the web-series 'NOIL'; and in the short film 'Shelter', which took international the festival circuits by storm. ​​

Leah reads a script in front of an audience sat alongn side four other actors in the recorded reading, and a BSL interpreter
Leah and fellow Actress Anna performing a scene. They stare intenseley at eachother, both tearful. Leah is in her wheelchair, Anna stands opposite her. They both hold scripts in their hands, rehearsing.
A bright, smiling, over-the-shoulder/side-on headshot of Leah against a beige backdrop. She smiles widely at the camera with a dimple showing, and lively grey-eyes looking at the lens. The light catches her high cheekbones, and her long brunette curls fall around her face and down her back - a little naturally messy, but generally defined and shiny. One ringlet curl; has fallen across her cheek, and she has tiny baby-ringlets around her forehead. She is wearing black high neck racer tank, with pronounced collar-bones and light olive-tanned skin.

Writing

As a writer, my pursuit is to help bridge the gap of authentic disability representation in the media.​ My original pilot has been officially selected in 6 festivals so far.including winning 'Best TV Pilot' in an IMDb accredited festival; as well as semi-finalist overall in the London International Screenwriting Competition.​ 

​

Combining her acting with her impressive screenwriting: Leah is currently in the process of producing a recorded table read of her festival-winning pilot script, which is being hosted at a top UK broadcaster, with a cast lead by Leah as the show’s protagonist.
