About

My Story

A passionate South African actor, I bring a diverse range of skills and experiences to the table. Standing at 5’9″ with warm brown eyes, I’m comfortable playing both charismatic and bald characters. Fluent in Afrikaans and English, I can also deliver convincing American and British accents. Beyond acting, I’m a proficient sailor, scuba diver, swimmer, and cyclist (both on and off-road). My training includes workshops with Ivana Chubbuck and the Brumilda Acting Academy, along with fire-fighting and weapons handling experience from my naval/military background. Whether you need a rugged outdoorsman or a charming everyman, I’m ready to bring my dedication and versatility to the role.
