About me
I am a professional actor based in the UK with over twenty years experience. I am a member of Equity, I am in Spotlight, on the IMDb, and have my own website. My recent credits include Terry in the Danny Dyer feature film VENDETTA, I play Yoss in the feature film DEATH (aka After Death) in which I co-star with Leslie Phillips, and the short film ALL IN A DAYS WORK with Mark Benton. I have also just appeared with Lou Ferrigno in the feature film INSTANT DEATH. My main interest is gaining more roles in feature films.I have worked on movies, television, and theatre. I made my West End theatre debut in 1997 in the play HURLYBURLY with Mark Benton, David Tennant, Andy Serkis, Rupert Graves, Susannah Doyle and Jenny Seagrove. It was produced by Bill Kenwright and Sir Peter Hall.
