It was there she first developed a taste for performing and went on to join St Martins Youth Theatre, appearing in many productions whilst still a child. Louise then studied law for a while at university due to her Father's wishes, but decided to pursue acting after attending a careers day which changed her mind about her future. It was then Louise decided to definitely become an actress. Prior to this Louise also had a modelling career in the early 1980s and was trained in classical ballet and jazz dance. She was still at drama school in Australia when she began work a few days a week on "Prisoner". Finally she worked her way up from a non-speaking extra to a fully fledged character; Lou Kelly, who made a remarkable impact on the series and was one of the longest serving actresses on the show.
