About me:
Hey! My name is Ken! Ken Smart! Just one of those guys you think less of on the street but see me on stage then you realise you just missed a great star. I'm a very intelligent professional with creative mind and good sense of humour. This has earned me a place in my company to be a public speaker at various events and I have been featured in the last 4 editions of the company's magazine following the success of 'Anna & Rose', Taxi for comedian and 'Variety is the Spice of death' and 'Mixed Blessings' on passion TV.I'm very ambitious and quite determined to reach a greater height in my acting carrer. I was involved in organising national campus queen beauty contest in my university days. I love comedy but am quite flexible with roles .From pastor to gangster, from lover boy to grandfather. Acting is challenging but rewarding.I'm a committed individual with pride in being dynamic, spontaneous ,communicative and extremely charming .You think Denzel is a star - watch me !<
