I have been acting since the age of 15 and attended part-time acting classes at the Mona Vale Film & TV school for 3 years, where I was trained by respected Australian actress Bunney Brooke.  I performed in a number of plays with the Elanora Players, before taking a break from acting to pursue other career goals.

The love of acting called me back in 2011 and I enrolled in a 1-year full-time screen acting course with the Actor's Hub in Willoughby NSW. Since then, I have worked steadily in short films, commercials, corporate videos, music videos, web series and theatre.

I also enjoy writing & directing. I have my own production company called 'Janjechop Productions' and have completed a comedy web series called 'Living Together', a film called 'Neighbourhood Watch' that was entered into the Creative Creatures Film Festival & a variety of showreel pieces.

 

My most challenging stage role to-date has been portraying La Marquise de Merteuil in 'Les Liaisons Dangereuses'. In 2022, I directed a play called "Queen Takes Emperor" written by Rex McGregor, as well as, a black comedy called 'A Body Is Found' written by Chris Naylor, for Bareboards at the Arts Theatre Cronulla in 2023.

 

I was also awarded Best Actress in a Leading Role for my portrayal of Nurse Ratched in 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest' for RABTA 2022 (Ruby's Annual Birthday & Theatre Awards) & Best Actress at Crash Test Drama Cronulla 2023 (Heat 1).

​

One of my most favourite roles was portraying Stephanie Dickinson in 'Cactus Flower' at the Pavilion Theatre for the Castle Hill Players in 2023. I returned to the Castle Hill Players in 2024 to portray Monica Rice in their April production of the Australian comedy 'Caravan'. ​

​

I am very excited to announce that I have been cast in the lead role of Sylvia in 'Sylvia' by A. R. Gurney at the Hunters Hill Theatre for the first production of their 2025 season. More details to come soon - watch this space!​
