About Me

The old saying of "a picture paints a thousand words" is true to some extent...On screen I am the epitome of Villainy.........Which perhaps brings me to your attention now? If your production requires a 'tough guy', 'hard man', 'mob boss' or fighter - I am the real deal! In stark contrast to this intimidating persona, is the the friendly personality that I display as an experienced Presenter! I hope you'll check out a couple of the example videos to see what I mean! If your project requires narration, I have a truly incredible speaking voice that can range from Cockney to Corporate! NB. I am NOT a singer, dancer, model or extra- I am very realistic of my talents and driven by the pursuit of quality rather than financial gain. Please contact me if you would like to discuss my suitability. Rest assured, despite my looks, size and sound, I am very approachable (and really rather charming!) so I'd be delighted to hear from you.

Qualifications & Training

My life has created a look and persona PERFECT for films of certain genres- I am never going to be cast as the lead for any romantic comedies! I am what I look like- a Hard B@stard! I have a screen presence that is both credible and genuinely intimidating!(However, in real life I am thoroughly charming!)

I am proficient in learning large amounts of scripts to the letter or quick-thinking improvisation at the Director's discretion.

With background in Boxing and Kick Boxing and a career of over 17 years in the Fitness Industry, I am possess the skills and care to act out fight-scene choreography to ensure a safe and credible outcome.

Having been involved in a lot of 'shoots' I am very aware of the importance of good work ethics and time keeping.
I am very professional, reliable and courteous. Film-making is a collaboration of the effort and talents of a lot of people - I take this responsibility and commitment very seriously, not just for the future of my career but out of respect for all those people involved.

I have been involved in over 200 video productions as a Presenter and Voice-Over Artist. Please view the videos to see a few examples of my recent work.

I am equally proficient at using an autocue/teleprompter as I am with memorising scripts or researched improvisation.

I have developed my acting skills during hours of filming in shoots on locations around the UK....however, to be completely honest, the best training for the acting genre I am involved in,has evolved from a life well 'lived'!!


Other Information

Relevant Skills

I am very experienced in learning complex scripts, proficiently use an autocue or improvise.

I am a skilled boxer with experience in fight choreography.

In my last film I was trained to sail a motor boat!

Interests & Hobbies

I am currently in training to master accents and dialects for acting (Russian, American, Irish and Scottish)

I LOVE films(although these days I tend to study the delivery of lines rather than relax and enjoy the entertainment!)
