about me
I am continuously looking for interesting projects from ambitious filmmakers - including corporate assignment films - and roles that add something to my experience.
Since 2016 until now I have played leading or supporting roles in student films (also internationally) and small roles in major productions and TV series
Before that I worked as a professional training actor for over 25 years. Delivering credible and consistent behavior in a realistic setting was my core competency.
In the 80s, after the Theatre School in Warsaw (directing), I mainly directed and taught.
