Brought up in a rugged part of Northern England, I developed a keen passion for exploring. This passion has taken me to different corners of the world, giving me new stories, friends and insights.

I like to express myself with music through writing, busking and performing, or on a mountain bike, skateboard or surfboard.

For me, the magic is in the subtleties.

Teach, Learn, Share

Music is a big part of my life, and I love to play to share it wherever I go. I'm also passionate about science and education, and love to learn and share knowledge. I've coached a wide range of sports and I'm always happy to give some pointers to anybody if it may help!
