About Me

I have always loved immersing myself in a world of creativity, from acting, to singing and performing. Where possible I have helped other people on their creative journey and in turn gained a vast array of experience. Over the last 5 years I have got involved with as many acting and singing opportunities as I can. As a singer I have had the privilege of performing for the BBC and opening up for MTV crashes Plymouth in front of large audiences which has helped me perform well under pressure.

I started out my acting career helping on local student films playing a number of lead roles, bringing my own unique style to the characters and learning to perform in a number of differing settings. Keen to gain as much experience in this field as possible I helped out on a IMDb credited feature film 'The Curse of The Phoenix' initially as a runner/driver but during the summer of filming I played a number of extra roles within the film (bar patron and a fighter in a fight scene on a pirate ship). This was a great experience and led to me landing a spot in a film called 'Meet Again' which I gained a credit on IMDb, the parts I played in this role enabled me to use my acting skills and singing skills alongside one another.
I'm now interested in building on this experience further and in particular landing roles in TV and Film for lead and supporting roles.
