About me
I am an immensely ambitious actor, since my graduation at the University of Gloucestershire I have spent my time building my own theatre and roleplay company that operates in Gloucestershire. This has given me extensive experience in working on original projects with a wide number of new and upcoming writers, directors and actors. This co-operation is a major passion of mine and is the backbone of what keeps the British theatre tradition alive and I would love to expand my network of contacts. Despite my love for theatre however, my main aim, having worked so much in that industry, is to branch out and develop my CV in the world of TV and Film.I have worked with numerous local businesses and educational centres, first as a part of Smash the Glass where I was provided my training, and then with my own business Wolf in the Web. Facilitating corporate and educational roleplay has lead me to develop effective communicative skills that has aided me in working well within a classroom, as well as in entertaining and addressing large crowds. I have a passion for assisting the local community and often work with local schools and the University of Gloucestershire whom I still share a strong relationship with.
