“Merry is Sandi Toksvig, Brian Cox and Victoria Wood rolled into one!”
-West End New Act of the Year
Since beginning stand-up comedy in 2021, and have since performed all across the UK bringing my arsenal of my ukulele, flashcards, and a rubik’s cube.
I have frequented many comedy events such as Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Backyard Comedy Club, An Evening of Unnecessary Detail and MCM ComicCon. Not only that, I was a finalist at West End New Act of the Year in 2024, and won Edinburgh Fringe Queerovision the same year (wow, what a gal).

I have also created my own game show Let’s Get Mean, I’m a founding member of The Palace Panel Show and one-half of comedy duo, Nerd Mentality, with QI Elf Joe Mayo.
