Biography: Michele was born in Sydney, Australia. Realising that life there was just too good to be true, her unconventional family emigrated to Leicestershire (as you do!). Michele soon developed a passion for medieval history. She spent much of her childhood in and around castles and battlefields, fighting invisible foe with invisible swords whilst wearing invisible armour. After several years rehabilitation in mental institutions she made the most of her vivid imagination by taking to the stage. She was accepted by The Central School of Speech and Drama and walked away with a Degree Certificate to hang on the wall. Realising that life in the UK was too good to be true she returned to live in Australia and now faces the terrible hardship of having to walk her two dogs every morning on a empty, sandy beach and endures day after day of clear blue skies and golden sunshine. Life can be so cruel sometimes!
