Asif Iqbal

I am acting and modelling. I am patient, creative, well-motivated and hardworking and am passionate about my work. I am a self-starter, resilient, and able to work independently. I’m sensitive to people’s needs and always personable and professional in my approach to the public, colleagues, and stakeholders. I have a good sense of humour and enjoy meeting people. I mix well with people from all sections of the community and have excellent communication and interpersonal skills. I love travelling and have had the opportunity to travel around the world with stops including Toronto, LA, Auckland, Sydney, Bangkok, Phuket and Singapore before returning to London. In addition, I have travelled a lot to the USA (New York, Washington DC, Florida), Europe (Spain, Scandinavia, Germany, France, Finland, Ireland, Scotland), Dubai and South East Asia (India and Pakistan and Tokyo). Here, I enjoyed meeting the local communities and their cultures, and tourism and have given an insight into their daily lives, national politics and the systems they live in.
