MEET THE TEAM
HEIDI
After graduating from the prestigious Italia Conti Academy of Performing Arts London. Heidi worked in many countries as a performer. Most memorable being Minnie Mouse and Alice in Wonderland in Disneyland Paris, as well as being a children’s voiceover artist in many plays for BBC Radio. Heidi also starred in many off-West-End London Stage productions and worked as a TV presenter. After working professionally in Australia and America she ventured back to her home town in South Wales to start a family.
After gaining her teaching qualification Heidi realised she also loved helping children follow their passions and loved nurturing talent and directing as much as performing. With that in mind, Heidi went on to become the proud Principal of 7 Stagecoach Performing Arts Schools in Wales, where she is loving nurturing young talent with her vast experience whilst still being able to have the freedom to be creative.
Heidi is so excited to extend this experience and use her knowledge and skills to be the manager of AKT Cymru (an extension of AKT Management) and having such great relationships with agents of her own as well as with many Casting Directors in the past she realises that having a close supportive relationship with clients is essential.
