I am Irish born in Dublin with the roots of a Russian Jewish background (3rd generation).People say I look 'Black Irish', with black hair and an olive complexion giving people the impression my roots are more like of Spanish decent. I am a keen photographer & director but I have spent many years working in the music business, managing artists and producing records. A lot of people think I'm famous! All my life I seem to have attracted looks from men & women, young & old, or I get stopped in the street by people, thinking they know me from TV or else they think I'm in a band. I love a good laugh and I can naturally do a few different strong Irish accents. My natural voice has been described as a 'Mid-Atlantic' accent, having lived in London for more than 20 years. If there's anything that leaves an impression on the media, it's my voice. I enjoy reading and writing and I'm extremely well travelled, with my family currently living all over the world. I also enjoy lecturing & presenting.

I have been working constantly doing TV features throughout the year. I also completed a commercial which is getting regular plays nationwide, on several channels for Red Driving school.

I have experience working as a Video Reporter and Reading the News using Autocue.

Reality TV
I have been interviewed on TV a few times where I've been asked to discuss aspects of the fashion industry and the world of modelling. I have a natural aptitude for speaking on camera or radio because of my confidence and distinctive voice. I enjoy good diction and interpreting different moods to reflect the topic being discussed. I am currently choosing a course in presenting, which I hope will allow me to move forward swiftly.
Crew / Photography
Admittedly, I have more years behind the camera than in front. So, I am aware of the issues of filming and photography because of that experience but I enjoy taking direction. I used to be a child model in Ireland where I grew up.
Acting and Presenting has pretty much taken over my daily life now particularly in the last 2 years, but I still enjoy shooting when its something special and I am currently in the process of seeking commissioners and production partners for the TV programmes I've written.
These days I tend to talk more about photography - see BBC News Feature http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=fy0R3ZiXoqQ
