Hello!
I’m Lozza (they/them), an actor, voice actor and disability advocate. I’m disabled and neurodivergent, and an ambulatory wheelchair user.
As an autistic person, the games I’ve played and the stories I’ve enjoyed make up a core part of who I am. Aside from being one of my longest spanning interests, gaming is the reason I learnt to socialise, bonded with friends and found others like me. So it’s no wonder I gained a massive appreciation for the work that went into creating my favourite characters, and the actors portraying them!
I would constantly repeat lines my favourite characters had said, and loved trying to recreate their voices and performances (to the annoyance of my parents).
Growing up, I longed to see people like me in games and other media, and now as a queer, disabled adult, I’m a big believer in the power of authentic representation and how that can positively impact the next generation.
Some Background
I began my work as a disability advocate in 2021 when I finally received my diagnoses of autism and ADHD after suspecting I had both since I was 11. Since starting my journey, I have worked tirelessly to build an online platform where I discuss topics around disability, I’ve worked with charities, delivered talks and spoke on panels and the radio.
I graduated from Newcastle University with an aegrotat degree in Astrophysics in 2023, after studying became too inaccessible for me. I had intended to pursue physics for a number of years, but it became apparent that this would no longer be an accessible path for a chronically ill, neurodivergent person. So, I used my existing passions for gaming and performance and began pursuing acting and voice acting! (I keep telling people I’m in my Brian May era, though I’m yet to do something as impressive as forming Queen.)
What I’m up to
Currently, I split most of my time between auditioning for roles, honing my craft and streaming a variety of games on Twitch. If I’m not doing any of those things, you can probably find me yapping in some corner of the Internet, or playing Balatro with Barney (help, I’m addicted!)
Some of my favourite games include: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild, Animal Crossing: Wild World, Skate 3, Beyond: Two Souls, Baldur’s Gate 3, Disco Elysium, Little Big Planet, Detroit: Become Human and Saints Row 4, but I’ve played a variety of games spanning many genres and platforms.
I’m also a massive fan of the Lord of the Rings, and I’m a big video game soundtracks nerd.
