“In both acting and writing, I’m drawn to challenges and the chance to invert stereotypes. I gravitate toward characters who resist being conventionalised — outliers, you could say. I push back against preconceptions and reductive thinking; I don’t see people as absolutes. That kind of rigidity is both dangerous and creatively limiting.”

Heidi lives in London with her husband & two dogs, Indiana Jones and Freddy.

She is a full member of the Writers Guild of Great Britain, Women in TV & Film & Equity.
