About me
I was in a television, commercials, and film back in the late 70s then returned to acting a few years ago, and have since acted in a number of films, documentaries, commercial work, and television series. Since retiring from a 30 year career as a practising dentist, I have worked extensively with a variety of acting coaches and casting directors. I am enjoying this second act on the stage of my life, and work hard at my performances and continue to learn new ways to improve my work. Recently, I began doing some modeling work as well.License & Passport

I was in television, commercials, and film back in the late 70s, then returned to acting a few years ago, and have since acted in a variety of short films, documentaries, commercial work, and television series. Since retiring from a 30 year career as a practising dentist, I have worked extensively with a variety of acting coaches and casting directors. I am enjoying this second act on the stage of my life, and work hard at my performances and continue to learn new ways to improve my work. Recently I took on some modeling work as well.
I am pleased to now be an ACTRA member after several years of non-union work.
