About

Erroll has forged a career spanning decades in the mediums of Film and TV through dedication to his mahi (work).

For him, every job provides a new challenge, every character provides some aspect of life that he has never explored, and that is one of the key aspects of acting that fuels his passion for the job, and will continue to forever.
