About Me

Actor/Artist/Writer/Whatever...Well, what can I say? Born in Islington (that's UK, folks) sometime in the 70's (or 80's? Nah...) where I went on to study (amongst other boring things) art & drama at various levels.Been acting practically all my life! As a child, according to my mum, I was always 'acting the clown'...and at work, i was always acting like I was busy... But on the eve of the millennium I started acting professionally (as in actually getting paid for it) ...Why then? I figured if I REALLY sucked at it, no-one would be around to comment anyway!Ok, bad joke (get used to it)...Aaaanyway, I've done mostly theatre (some plays I've both written & directed), appeared in a couple of shows at The Royal Opera House (No no, I DON'T sing) in addition to various TV & film work.I've just finished my first pet project (no, nothing whatsoever to do with cats or dogs) which you'll find in my ‘art’ section within my 'pics' section (sorry, did I mention I'm also an artist? Alright calm down, just checking!!!) and I’m just putting a final lick of polish on a screenplay based on a black actor/artist/writer trying to make it in today’s ever-evolving ever-challinging media climate! Oddly enough he's kind of described as looking a bit like me....Hey, it's a "coincidence"! Ok?man...

My Interests

Acting, designing, Illustrating, Cinema, Xboxing (Hey, it's all about the 360, alright?), writing, working out, film editing...and finally...sleeping. After all, that's usually all in the same day!!!

I'd like to meet:

Creative people all over the world! You know who you are... Artists, actors, directors, writers, musicians etc, etc... basically, anyone who can take nothing and make something out of it!Something 'interesting' that is...View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
