I started working life along side my father as a Graphic Designer and illustrator and family business book keeper. Having done the accounts from a young age I ended up working in the family business for 10 years. In 1994 I left the family business and traveled in the USA for nearly a year before disappearing in to the world of telecoms fraud detection and revenue assurance for 1/4 of a century.

Over the years I developed a desire to get back to being creative mainly focusing on guitar creations, wanting to work with vulnerable adults especially those with Asperger’s and be working for a charity. During the Covid lock down I left telecoms and moved into the world of care and after a year, to my good fortune I found the joint charities of Camphill and TSFR-MK that absolutely ticked every box I was looking for and I now enjoy being creative with a group of lovely vulnerable adults where we do everything from cleaning a spanner to building guitars.
