Tiger Lilli, professional stunt woman and actress, has had an intriguing journey into her chosen careers. As a child she was exceedingly competitive, and was involved in multiple sports to a high level with gymnastics as her core. During her school years Tiger found herself chosen for lead roles in plays and drama projects. These experiences inspired her to begin acting training in the Manchester school for drama, and lead to her being cast in Coronation Street, Hollyoaks, and modeling. Throughout her childhood, Tiger continued with high intensity physical training as well as progressing in her education, deciding to pursue her desire to be a barrister. She achieved high results, and was placed at a prestigious university to study law, at which point she took a gap year to go travelling the world. Globe trotting brought her a wealth of experiences, leading her to relinquish her plan of studying law, and instead become an entrepreneur. Among her ventures was breaking people's horses, she also shadowed business gurus in order to expand her horizons and deepen her awareness. This curiosity and interest in the dynamics of the business world led her to travel extensively, learning from many people and producing young horses, many of whom went on to stardom. Through Tigers travels she found herself reintroduced to the idea of performing stunts and acting. Although roles in films such as Urban Hymn (2015), Edge of Tomorrow (2014), and About Time (2013) brought her much enjoyment, she missed being physically challenged. So that, in parallel to her acting career, she became one of approximately 60 women on the British Stunt Register. This led her to working as a professional stunt woman in features such as Bastille Day (2016), the TV series Galavant (2015), Legend (2015), Urban Hymn (2015), The British TV series Hollyoaks (2014), and All Stars (2013). She has appeared as herself in 51 Degrees North (2015), the German TV show Hin und Weg (2011), and reality TV show for channel 4, called the Audience (2013). Having experienced training with stunt professionals in the USA at the forefront of their field, early 2015 sees Tiger relocating to the States with a home in Los Angeles and a second home on the East Coast. She continues to embrace all opportunities and challenges, but in many ways the journey is only just beginning.
