About Me

Years of experience gained in job-related recruitment and training videos for the British army. More recently appearing in student films for Adam Smith college in Kirkcaldy and dialogue for telephone conversations. Extremely talented in speaking English with an Irish, Scottish (regional dialects),English (regional dialects), French, German, or American accent. Available for television or radio. At 6 foot 5 inches in height and weighing 22 stones I am generally typecast as either a soldier, a thug, a biker or the like which is why I also like the (limited) freedom that voiceovers allows.
