Experience & Qualifications
General Experience
I currently work as a part time host for a latin-american restaurant called Las Iguanas in Manchester, England. I believe this gives me good experience as an actor as I can communicate with customers who are complete strangers and learn how to make them laugh, relax and enjoy themselves which is detrimental to an environment where you are providing entertainment and charging a cost for it as well.
Qualifications & Training
Level 3 Diploma in Performing Arts achieved with Grades: D, M, M. (Equiv. to A, B, B.)
Other Information
Relevant Skills
My relevant skills would include great team skills as I am able to demonstrate with my current profession working as part of a team in a fast-paced service environment. My drive in life is that I am always learning, anything I can do to gain experience I will welcome with open arms and I am always willing to try and expand my skill set. One thing I believe I have above other clients is my drive and enthusiasm to go further.
Interests & Hobbies
My interests and hobbies include keeping fit at my local gym, become embroiled in a good film and playing football, the latter of which I find useful as again I am working as part of a communicating team in which I need to cater for everybody's emotions and not just my own.
Miscellaneous Information
I pride myself in being a hard working individual with one heck of a work ethic. I believe that this sets me apart from the rest as I am able to manage multiple tasks and give my all to any given role. My passion for acting comes from my understanding of studying many different practitioners and using their collaborated techniques to mold and structure a character in which I can fully invest myself to get the maximum potential of performance for my company/ employer.
