How long have you been working as an actor?

I have been working for about 15 years in various guises. Actor and Dancer was my primary start.

And what do you love most about it?

I love being able to disappear into someone else and creating a new person or lifting someone’s life off a page and breathing new life into them. I also love being able to entertain people and tell stories that illicit all types of emotions from people.

What acting work are you most proud of?

One that stands out the most is the character ‘Frederick’ from the ‘Queer’ anthology, curated by Mark Gatiss, which required me to learn and perform and 35 minute monologue and perform for a 2 week run. Not only was the character incredibly complex but I had never done that before.
