Skye's character repertoire also features a mysterious, tarot card-reading young girl in the second season of the sci-fi series "Torchwood" and a youthful Martha in the TV adaptation of Ken Follett's historical novel "The Pillars of the Earth". Her theatrical debut at the age of 13 was as Nadia in Peter Flannery's translation of "Burnt by the Sun" at the National Theatre, London, in March 2009.

Skye's voice acting debut occurred in the 2017 fantasy JRPG video game Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and its 2018 prequel DLC expansion, Torna ~ The Golden Country, where she brought to life the deuteragonists Pyra and Mythra. In a new creative venture, Skye started releasing music as Deva St. John in October 2018.
