When Ali won a scholarship to The Arts Educational School, Tring Park, at the age of twelve, her fate was sealed! After graduating from this performing arts boarding school, where she was a member of the Sainsbury's Choir Of The Year, she moved to London and continued her studies at Drama College for three years. On her release into the outside world, Ali worked extensively as an actor and singer until she discovered that working with young people in theatre is much more fun than working with actors. She then worked with many different
Theatre In Education Companies, touring the UK .
In 1995, Ali and Suzy founded the Kaos Organisation.
Ali has also directed many shows over the years, including one in Gujerati, which have been performed in London's theatres and arts centres.
Ali is an ISTA staff member and enjoys travelling the world as an arts festival director.
Ali has many strings to her bow, including stage combat and balloon modelling, but especially loves her Signductor role with The Kaos Signing Choir for Deaf and Hearing Children. Ali spent 3 years working as a Sign Language Communicator in a London School.
Ali is a singer/songwriter and gets her kicks from gigging with The Angels of Kaos, going camping and seeing rainbows!
