About me

I played Dr Van Brandt in "Daniela Forever", nominated at the Toronto International Film Festival.

With my background in stage fighting, combat sports and dance, action movies are totally up my street. I also worked for many years alongside Gbemisola Ikumelo, BAFTA winner, as a movement director.

What drives me: diving deep into the world of characters, their belief systems, the journey of non-judgement and compassion towards others, putting our talent, tears and sweat at the service of telling stories that truly matter.
