About Me

Acting. I LOVE ACTING!!! :) I would adore even the chance to be cast as an extra or any roll in which to apply myself.

I love music, especially rock (Bon Jovi) and anything with a mesmerising guitar solo. I'm studying guitar in London currently to further my knowledge in the instrument.

Love cars - I drive a 1984 Ford Capri for that classic retro look (Plus I just like to be a little diffrent)

Taekwondo and gym have become an enjoyable part of my life.

Experience & Qualifications

General Experience

Hello,
My interest in acting began in secondary school, where I took on a small part in the school’s yearly production of The Rocky Horror Show. From then on I showed a keen interest in theatre, going onto study drama at GCSE and A level.

After leaving school I took a gap year to earn money for university, where I worked in a local greengrocer up to manager position. I also discovered there was a community Play locally casting which I had to get involved with. The play was called: Something In Common by John Oram, whom I also performed for, in the Tunbridge Wells community play: ‘Camden Road the Musical’ in which I played an array of characters including: the last teenager to be hanged in Britain/ a young flirty Soldier and a tragic death scene of a young German Officer. These plays performed for two weeks to audiences of around 400 per night.

I've just completed another voluntary acting roll in which I performed as the Poet Ezra Pound and a fiesty farmer lad named Tom Tarney.
