Experience Summary

I have been modeling, acting, presenting and dancing for many years now and have a keen passion in all areas. I have been involved in many Exhibitions and Awards all over; NEC, Wembley Arena/ Stadium, Earls Court, Olympia, Alexandre Palace, Docklands Excel. Being in the industry has enabled me to do promotional work. I love the excitment and hype including the challenge over the 3 or 2 day event. As well as having fun it is important to be professional and able to convey the right image for the brand who are introducing themselves to new clients. My presenting skills have been made use of for exhibitions and marketing brands as I have confidence to speak in public and maintain a bubbly atmosphere, staying in touch with the audience. Also I have immense creative skills so am willing to be hands on projects or branding if need be. I am aware of the importance in Promotional work and the tough environment it can become. When taking a project on board my 100% commitment will be given. View my contact details, availability, and stats.
