About me

I have retired from a corporate position in Marketing & Advertising in the Airline industry after a career spanning 35 years. I am lucky enough to have travelled all over the world. As a creative individual, my interest was in Advertising before I entered the world of Aviation. I have therefore taken modelling/acting as my part time career and hobby. I am 70 years of age now but with a playing age between 50-65. I am a British Asian-Indian but with an olive skin colour and could suit roles which, apart from South Asian, would suit Mediterranean/Middle Eastern / Hispanic - South American looks as well.
