Jamaican born. The product of a mixed marriage: my mother was a woman and my father was a man.
A writer, producer, actor, stand up comic, musician and husband. Not always in that order.
Plied my trade in Jamaica, the UK, USA, Caribbean, Europe and a couple of prisons, where I made captive audiences laugh and escaped unscathed. These days I concentrate exclusively on writing for film and TV.
Majority of the voices in my head are Jamaican, however I am frequently inhabited by characters of other genders, nationalities and ethnicities.
My wife, cat and I live in Florida (since 2015) because I got to Kingston and other parts of Jamaica regularly.
I'm a director of T.H.E. Picture Company Ltd. who have produced a couple of shorts and a half hour comedy for TV.
Recent scripts I have penned have been winners, finalists or semifinalists in various contests and at film festivals.
