About

*CURRENTLY SEEKING REPRESENTATION* https://www.spotlight.com/interactive/cv/0852-8945-1685 Im an actor with six very full years of experience. Im at home in any stage of the dramatic process, from casting on the first day to wrap on the last. A film I am involved in, 'AmStarDam', has been nominated in this years (2016) Raindance Festival for best UK feature. A short film I starred in, 'Rose', appeared in the Cannes Short Film Corner in 2012 and another short I starred in Iceland this April has been put forward for several festivals and has gained lots of interest since unofficial release in July. I have music videos, commercials for both online and terrestrial tv and various corporate pieces all as part of my CV. I want to test myself every day in the acting field, to work with and learn from the best. Being content is not something I want, a desire to exceed and excel is.
