About Me

I have the background -- a rich exposure to places of the world (lived on most continents), businesses of the world (corporate as well as entrepreneurial) and people everywhere – for me to deliver roles most meaningfully and realistically, in all sorts of situations. I've also been in real-life dramas, been among peoples and cultures in crisis, and had personal contact with prominent people. I'm also well read in the popular sciences, with tackling mysteries in prehistory and developing original thoughts on that for my novel (www.deepstorm.org).

I've been an extra on feature films, acted in amateur dramatics (eg Buttons in Cinderella), attended acting workshops and presented papers at international conferences.

In short – I’m ready, willing and able (also fully available, fit and mobile) to take on your acting roles.
