I have SO much to say about the incredible Ben Cogan. I credit Ben entirely with starting my acting career. I was just 11 years old when I first walked into BBC Centre to audition for Casualty, very inexperienced and very nervous. Ben immediately put me at ease, the walk from the waiting area to the casting room changed everything for me and in the room he treated me like a respected actor and gave me space to make my own choices. 

He cast me in that first role and since then has always been there championing me with words of encouragement.  Ben - I owe you the world!
