Kayleigh Drake – The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.

“After leaving Dubai I went to study at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama where I fell in love with festivals, live events and producing. During my time there I worked with Paradise Green at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and have since been elected onto the board of directors where I work with 7 other directors to put the festival on at our venues each year. Alongside that, I work full time within the catering and events industry, acting as both event planner and manager for events across London, UK and Europe. I still pursue dance and performance in all my free time and Diverse is the inspiration for my love of live events through the jobs I was lucky enough to have as a semi-professional dancer at pop up events and exhibitions in Dubai. It has massively improved my confidence, physique and the amazing pool of friends that have also moved to London. I am so honoured to be a part of such a “Diverse” family and hope to be back soon to visit! “
