Natasha's life story begins in Liverpool, England, where she was born to a teacher mother, Mary, and a NHS manager father, Fred. For the initial decade of her existence, she resided in the Middle East, where her father's occupation with the World Health Organisation involved setting up immunisation clinics, and her mother taught at an English-speaking school.
Following a ten-year sojourn abroad, Natasha's family relocated back to the UK and settled in Loughton, Essex, England. She attended the local comprehensive school, Epping Forest College, where she was contemplating a future in law. However, a teacher's astute observation of her exceptional performance in a school production of Chicago inspired her to explore the realm of drama.
This serendipitous encounter led Natasha to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where she honed her craft and prepared herself for a career in the performing arts. Upon graduating, her inaugural role was that of the Tenth Man at the esteemed Hampstead Theatre.
Natasha's breakthrough came when she was discovered performing at the Latchmere Pub Theatre, subsequently landing the role of Jenny in the popular television series, London's Burning.
