Artist Bio

Once an accountant, Leslie was stopped in the street on his way to grab a sandwich (and Percy Pigs!), snapped by a casting director, and booked a Specsavers campaign just a week later. That serendipitous encounter launched a career that’s now spanned six years, with high-profile on-screen collaborations including Four Seasons, Singleton Whiskey, Samsung, and Virgin Voyages.

Known for his conversational, real, warm, and charming style – and his distinctive Essex accent – Leslie brings an easy relatability and authenticity to every project. His grounded yet charismatic presence makes him a natural fit for brands wanting to connect with audiences on a human level.

Away from set, Leslie’s passions are just as eclectic as his career journey. He’s an avid traveller, street photographer, and vinyl collector – always on the hunt for classic garage, 90s house, and disco records! He also enjoys exploring Japanese whiskey, embodying the same curiosity and appreciation for craft that he brings to his work on screen.
