I started working as an actor when an agent spotted me during a visit to the speech and drama school I attended during my childhood, where I trained and qualified under the LAMDA syllabus. During this time professional employment began, my first job being a "Colgate" toothpaste TV commercial in 1977 (I was six years old).
I am lucky enough to have undertaken a high calibre of work since the beginning of my career, as you may see from my credits. Over time I have been fortunate to work with and learn from a number of great actors, directors and other professionals.
During a period spanning almost thirty-five years I have played lead roles in an array of television, radio, film and theatre productions; from Fringe to the Royal Shakespeare Company, from soap operas to major dramas, from the small to the big screen.
In addition to my work as an Actor, I am engaged as a senior creative and operational director within the globally established and expanding Merlin Entertainments Group, currently in charge of a project in association with Dreamworks Animation LLC (if you'd like to know more about this side of my work, please feel free to get in touch).

Feel free to let me know if you'd like to enquire about my proven expertise beyond the realms of acting (producing, directing, writing, consulting, managing, coaching, et cetera).
None of this is just words, by the way; simply truth.
