April is "that girl off Skins"! After appearing in the cult TV show as a teenager, April continued to forge a career for herself as an actress, but isn’t afraid of talking about how hard her journey has been to stay relevant and keep up with her co-stars.
After the success of her IGTV lockdown series 'Are you Michelle from Skins?’ she is currently launching a podcast of the same name: talking to actors and creatives about what it’s like being known for a particular character or time in their lives. As April herself has first-hand experience she found that this shared reality meant her guests could be frank, raw and vulnerable during the interview.
An advocate for women-in-film, she has created her own content, co-producing and exec-producing 2 feature films so far. She has an NVQ in makeup application and was makeup designer for the critically acclaimed drag-queen comedy feature Tucked. Her passions are cooking and fitness and waiting for her naturally curly hair to dry!
