Additional Skills

Having been a temp in NYC while pursuing acting jobs I worked with a vast variety of industries and areas of work. Thus, I am familiar with medical terminology, scientific terminology, publishing, insurance, real estate, fashion, nursing, banking, aeronautics, pharamceuticals, food and cooking terminology, landscaping, the world of art, artists and applied media and, most importantly, the world of law.

Indeed, I have a checkered past, but it gives me all the more experience to come to a project with extra ammo.
