About Me
I believe myself to be a mature, level headed person with a happy outlook on life. I speak clearly, have a smart appearance and good manners. I am enthusiastic, not shy and enjoy meeting people. I am an honest person and would be a loyal, dependable and hardworking employee.
Ultimately, after studying in performing arts and finishing my degree my ambition is to become a performer in acting and singing and strive to appear in London's West End shows.
