Key Traits:

I have lived in Wales, for over twenty five years. Born in North Yorkshire, I now spend my time as an actor, musician, songwriter and author, previously being a therapist, trainer and researcher, specializing in mental health. I was educated in Middlesbrough, Sheffield and Cambridge. With a fascination for Welsh History, I like to create worlds; magical, haunting, and spiritually permeating sound moral codes of life. I live quietly with Debbie Eve and our dogs in a small cottage surrounded by the beauty of the Brecon Beacons in the Valleys of South Wales.
