ACTOR, SCREENWRITER, PRODUCER

“I joined Arts Dynamics because I am an entrepreneur and an actor. I write and produce my own productions that I tour with and then I am involved in other people's productions in TV, film, theatre and radio. I am wearing many hats, but my passion is in the artistic work. I am a performing artist in different ways but also in front of the camera. But then I also have a production company (...) So when I learned of Arts Dynamics and Epicenter providing a space toto connect with a cluster of other artistic performing personalities who may also have their passion in other areas, I thought that this is what I have to do, this is where I want to be, and see what happens.”

I would absolutely recommend Sofie to other artists looking to achieve similar results!”
