Career
Born in Sydney, he is a graduate of the National Institute of Dramatic Art. He appeared on G.P., Water Rats, Home and Away, and All Saints, before doing three years on Nine Network's Comedy Inc.[1] He has appeared in several films, including Children and The Time Game.[2] He has performed in many Sydney theatre productions and has done a host of readings, short stories, poems and journals for ABC Radio National, most notably a well-loved reading of Kenneth Cook's Australian classic novel Wake in Fright.[3]
He is also an accomplished singer and violinist. Originally classically trained, he now sings and plays blues/jazz.
Due to his early beginnings as a professional musician and actor, he was fortunate enough to have had the privilege of performing on all four stages of the Sydney Opera House (Concert Hall, Opera Theatre, Drama Theatre, Playhouse) by the age of seventeen.
