I was born, bred and educated in Surrey, England. From an early age my mother — a talented portrait artist, introduced me to painting, and I was also deeply inspired by the colourful rural surroundings of my home. At school I excelled in art and essay writing and also became a champion athlete, gymnast and archer.
As a teenager, my psychic insight and knowledge of the supernatural and mystical were nurtured and broadened by a local medium and her husband. At this time I travelled widely in Europe before moving to Cornwall to live and work within the fishing community and artist colony of St.Ives.
I was an offshore fisherman for several years, and an active RNLI crewmember and helmsman of the inshore lifeboat. During this period I also pursued my artistic interests and endeavours in painting and stone sculpture, exhibiting throughout Cornwall, Devon and the London area.
For five years I was employed as a painter and maintenance crewman on the lighthouses around Cornwall, the Channel Islands and southern England. Whilst stationed on remote and offshore lighthouses I used my spare time to develop my passion for writing.
Upon leaving the Lighthouse Service, I trained and qualified as a hypnotherapist at Regents College London and practiced in Cornwall, specializing in regression therapy. Since then I have moved back to my roots in Surrey where I now pursue my artistic interests and love for trompe l`oeil mural painting. I receive commissions both at home and abroad.
I also trade as a painter and decorator but have continued writing by producing short stories, a play, and a paranormal adventure series for TV. In 2008 I published my first book, a novel called CHANGE — An Adventure in Life and Afterlife.
I am not a conventional writer — the subjects of my work are spiritual and supernatural and so are the sources of my inspiration. I have acquired a broad psychic and metaphysical knowledge from personal experiences and studies. My future writing projects and interests concern the spiritual nature of Life, metaphysics and human development.
