About Me
I am a versatile actor with a great ear for accents - recent theatre includes roles in the West End and NT. TV work includes guest lead roles for the BBC - most recently CASUALTY. I also narrate audiobooks and love to voice characters in games such as Warhammer and Lego Football. I am based just outside London with a home studio. Repped by the wonderful Lou Davidson at Simon & How and Damn Good Voices.
