My Acting style had been extremely ranged, from very serious work with Chekhov, Shakespeare and Shepard respectably to more comedic and commedia roles of Snow White, Pinocchio and even a young Rick Astley impersonator for the BBC! I have also used my acting as a medium for getting young children involved and engaged with the arts and literature, shown from my work with the swashbuckling novel, Treasure Island, which allowed kids to get excited at classic children’s literature. I also used drama in the London Bubble Company, that lended my acting as an introduction into reading and writing for children with learning difficulties or has English as a second or third language. I have had previous experience in both theatre, television and film, appearing in both on ITV and BBC for different roles and with it had come a wealth of understanding regarding the style of performing for that specific medium of performance. Furthermore I have undertaken a great many short films for various Universities and, from that, experienced a greater knowledge to fully engage with camera work and the skills required in front of camera. Finally I have been a part of a varity of stage work with performances ranging from serious pieces to more comedic and pantomine
