About me
I am a 25 year old actor and singer. I have completed University degree and have been involved with professional productions for the last couple of years since graduating. My previous roles have been stage orientated but i am more than happy to engage within all different types of performance. I love working with a team of creatives to produce top quality, professional work.I currently play a roles for the company Spectrum Drama, my most notably being Yuri Gagarin which is performed within the National Science Museum in South Kensington. I am Essex based but i frequently travel into central London.
Most of my work is tailored to working with very young audiences within a theatre in education environment, i feel this has helped me massively as a performer. A younger audience can be more challenging to hold and engage in some cases. Developing the skills to control, engage and immerse a younger audience have helped in my understanding of the skills required to be a better Actor

Highlights
-
I am an Actor that has previous professional experience which has all been Stage orientated. Mainly professional Pantomime. The role that i am playing at the moment is "Yuri Gagarin" (The first man in space) at the National Science museum. I am used to performing infront of an audience and know how to hold myself. One of my favourite television programmes is Gogglebox, as it is a real representation of how reality television can show how similar different segments of our society really are. We can see this through the reactions of each family that their reactions are normally very similar. Showing a common ground for people who may think they are completely different. I like to try and incorporate this into my performance style. I try to create opportunities for the audience to get involved and also react to key parts of my performance together
