I'm a professional singer-actor and baritenor based in London and Manchester, trained at Pendleton College and The Hammond over six years. I perform in six languages and spent the last few years working at sea, headlining for Princess Cruises and for two European lines. That work took me through 46 countries and taught me to learn fast and stay calm when things move quickly. On one contract I learned six shows in a fortnight, most of them in German. I've now finished with ship contracts and I'm building a working life on land.Performing is still part of that. I teach singing privately and run a course business helping other performers put together their own cabaret shows. I'm also a FORA certified travel advisor, planning and booking trips for private clients, which keeps me sharp on detail and deadlines.The administrative side runs alongside it. For two years I was office administrator and receptionist at a firm of chartered surveyors in Stockport, handling data management and document preparation as well as front of house. Before any of that I spent five years caring for elderly and vulnerable people with Helping Hands while I studied, and it's still the job I draw on most, because it taught me patience and how to read a room quickly.
