Upon leaving university, Diane worked as a drama teacher in Sherborne, Dorset before emigrating to New Zealand where she was represented by Auckland Actors. It was in New Zealand that Diane began performing stand-up, and it was during this time she was nominated as Best Newcomer 2007 by the NZ Comedy Guild, and then Best Female Comedian in 2009. She was Nominated Best Actress in the Auckland 48 Hr Film Festival for her appearance in a short film "Natures Baby" (director Luke Wheeler). Returning to the UK in 2010, Diane won Best Newcomer 2011 at the Chortle Award and has been continually touring and performing ever since. Her projects are: Galaxy Ball Team Earth (2017), a sitcom about dogs that play sport in space, and touring her new comedy special for 2018.
