Castings
I put a lot of focus and time into a character when I've been cast in a role, thinking about their past and what makes them tick. I understand, how the actor needs to bring something to the table for the Director, having been on the other side of it and also as a writer I can see how the character on the page is just a start. I enjoy acting and collaborating with others on creative projects and will always be keen to hear about the next potential story I could immerse myself in.

I am suited to supporting roles and character work as this fits my penchant for playing funny men and villains or just general odd balls.

I am also quite adept and changing my voice to fit a diverse range of characters, accents and sound-a-likes. Please listen to my audio recordings fo a range of improvised character voices.

My most recent experience has been in short films playing lead and supporting roles. I have appeared on stage several times in semi-professional musicals and straight plays in the past I have also done extra work for TV and feature films.

Several reviews have noted my ability for comic timing and additionally I am a writer, which enables me to get the gist of a character from a script very quickly. I am also particularly good at improvisation and creating a character.

I hold a full UK driving license and I would love to get thrown through a window at some point in my life (preferably in a film rather than real life).
