About Me

I enjoy going to the cinema with friends and often attend preview and first-night screenings of many films. I am actively involved in creating my own Graphic Novel Style films and use many current digital media applications such as Macromedia Flash, Adobe After Effects, and Apple Products such as Final Cut Pro, using special effects throughout.

I am an avid fan of musicals and have an eclectic taste in music. Although I am not trained, I enjoy playing the keyboard and have had a few lessons on the saxophone. I can also play the drums and have had the opportunity to play on the most current digital drum kits at West London Academy.

Experience & Qualifications


General Experience

I have performed a series of various serious and comical performances, as well as monologue and poetry readings at numerous Prize Giving ceremonies at schools and school events. For my final production at school, my practical piece was August Strindberg's- The Creditors. I played the role of Gustav.

I have worked with a group of AS students performing Shakespeare's 'A Midsummers Nights Dream' where I played the role of Bottom. This was performed to a paying public at the Paul Robeson Theatre in Hounslow, Middlesex. This was a project run by the Shakespeare Youth Company during the Shakespeare Youth Festival.

I had a credited role in Tiger Aspects TV Drama production of May Contain Nuts, based on a book by John O'Farrell. I was Kofi, a very tall brother of one of the lead child performers. This was televised on ITV during July 2009
