This section of the site is about me, a little window on the person behind the work.

(If you want to know about my professional experience or formal qualifications, scroll up or click the 'my experience' button on the navigation bar.)

About seven years ago, I moved from London to Redgrave, a quiet village in Suffolk. I live in a little old cottage with my lovely wife Emma (Senior Management), our beautiful daughter Poppy (Junior Management), Buster and Charlie our labrador-collie brothers ... and ... Snowy the hamster.

As you know I like to create, so enjoy building and fixing things, anything that allows me to work with my hands. I usually have a few projects on the go and currently have a couple of vintage caravans waiting to be transformed into 'amazing spaces', due to be tackled in the Spring.

I'm a big fan of outdoor pursuits; long country walks, cycling, camping, off-roading, sailing and motorcycles - although the latter have dropped from my to-do list since becoming a parent.

I started playing squash regularly last year and squeeze in a bit of painting when I have the opportunity.

I'll be FORTY this year ... (how did that happen ...?!).
