Personal Description:

Acting Experience

Since finishing theatre school, I have been lucky enough to have a very varied and busy acting career.

I toured a one woman show to critical acclaim; 5* reviews in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and sell out audiences in every venue. I then went on to play lead roles in a number of plays and short films. I landed my first feature film role in 2011 and played Fiona in award winning 'The Enchantress' alongside Nicholas Ball (Hazard), James Simmonds (Les Miserables film; Lion King) and Johanne Murdock (Holby City) and took the lead in stage show 'Medea' that year as well.


TV Experience

A familiar face in the television as a TV presenter, producer and writer, Alexandra has been a driving force in many quality, great selling productions over the last few years.

2012 was an extremely busy year. I was the production coordinator and presenter of the SKY TV programme 'Inside Track' - a documentary written after my time spent working at the McLaren technology Centre as a presenter. I interviewed many industry favourites including F1 driver Sergio Perezs' Personal trainer and Mind Coach Simon Fitchett; ITV presenter and media guru Louise Coleman; ex F1 star and racing champion Mike Wilds; Rallycross champion Liam Doran; BTCC stars Tom Onslow Cole, Andy Neate and Rob Collard to name a small few.

I wrote, produced and presented the recently aired (Motors TV) Motorsport UK Show - as well as presenting the live stage at the event; and i landed a major presenting role as the ongoing presenter on one of the most popular YouTube car channels 'Fast, Furious and Funny' () on which I still present now.

I presented the Le Mans Classic live studio with Alain de Cadenet and Sarah Dryhurst - interviewing some incredible names such as Richard Mille, Jean Todt, Gordon Sheddon, Anthony Reid, James Wood and Gregor Fisken; and during the 2012 season I was the presenter of the F3 Cup, the Production BMW, the VAG Trophy and the MK2 Golf Championships, all of which aired weekly on Motors TV.

This year I am set again to present these championships as well as a number of other car related shows; i will continue to present the YouTube channel; I recently presented the Couture Fashion Week so will be presenting the main show in April; and I have a number of music festivals and fashions shows I will be presenting.


PR, MEDIA, COMMUNICATIONS, LIFE COACHING

I set up my own company: With Panache ltd. Now, 7 years on I am the MD of With Panache Agency () With Panache PR, Monster Feet Media (nee With Panache Productions), Al & the Sunflowers () and Alemar Music Ltd ().
