Euan's Profile
Experience Summary
I am an actor and work in film, tv, theatre and corporate work includes video and role play.
A somewhat precarious industry at the best of times I have supplemented my income with sales demonstration work over the past twenty one years. Demonstrating a wide range of household and electrical products at retail shows like the Ideal Home Show, BBC Good Food Shows etc.
I keep myself reasonably fit by playing tennis regularly throughout the summer in addition to running, swimming and pilates.
I own my own 2008 short wheel base VW transporter. View
