About Me

15 years ago, I worked regularly as an extra on all sorts of productions from adverts and documentaries to feature films. Then, life got in the way, but now I remembered how much I enjoyed this kind or work and I'm ready to go back to it.
I feel I am very versatile, reliable, punctual and always endeavour to follow directors' orders accurately. I am professional, friendly with an outgoing personality and fit well into a variety of situations.
