Little old me

At the age of 14 I made a website about my much loved Aston Villa FC, grew a mailing list of 2000+ fans and had a cease and desist from the official magazine. At the age of 34 I was shareholder of digital product company which was sold to a multinational corporate. During the in-between 20 years I worked with various blue chip brands and some amazingly talented people in various agencies and learnt a lot. I have been on the tools as a developer, developing others as a manager and implementing core business strategy as a director.

I can therefore help your business be better. I am also not that arrogant; I am a nice guy really.

Over the years, in my spare time, I have created various products- I believe the kids are calling them 'side-hustles'. A few became successful, all I am proud of.

After 5:30pm

I have always loved sport throughout my life, however I have always been unable to be any good at anything. In-between drinking red wine, watching rubbish TV and looking after my little boy I love to clear the head running.

A whistle stop tour of my career

Over the 20 years in employment I have been fortunate to work at three fantastic marketing agencies which allowed me to work on key projects for these brands.
