'Lara is profoundly Deaf and found her passion for acting when she had the opportunity to take part in a film project in association with the NDCS and BBC blast.

She was raised in North Lincolnshire, and when she is not acting she spends her time tending her animals and greeting her amazing customers at her family run pet shop.

Lara mainly acted in independent short films with the roles from a killer to a teenager trying to find her place in the world.  She also appeared in a BBC Drama, ‘Silence’ and recently was involved with a charity advertisement.

The short film, ‘My Song’ directed by William Mager, in which she played the lead role was entered in Clin D’Oeil Festival in Reims 2011, where much to her delight she won the award for ‘Best Actress’. '
