A North London, Middlesex Acting graduate with further extensive training at The Met Film school in Ealing Studios and
The William Palmer College. His work as an actor includes both stage and screen with writing and directing experience.
His training at The William Palmer college included the reading of classics from Greek Theatre such as Euripides and Sophocles, Shakespeare and moving on to Ibsen, Brecht and later to more contemporary playwrights such as Arthur Miller and David Mamet. Practitioners of particular interest during this period included Edward Gordon Craig and Steven Berkoff
During his 3 year Acting Degree at Middlesex, his personal focus shifted toward the study of movement with particular interest in Jacques Lecoq's approaches to the physical aspects of acting. He later went on to focus on Stella Adlers approach to 'The Method' and the differences between stage and screen acting.
During his time at The Met Film School at the famous Ealing Studios, he focused again on screen acting and started to study the works of Anthony Hopkins, Denzel Washington, George C Scott, Russell Crowe and Michael Keaton.
He can be seen as one of main leads in the 2014 BFI entry '99% Certain' and in Director Mike Clarke's upcoming works for 2016 including 'Love's Innocence Lost' which is currently receiving high praise from Film Critics in North America.
