About me
Click here to add an image of yourself (optional). Important information for minors |
I am a Solicitor by profession; an actor and singer by inclination. I was born Catterick Garrison, at the old military hospital, and lived until I was 5 in the stunning village of Gunnerside in Swaledale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunnerside), before moving to Richmond, in North Yorkshire (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richmond,_North_Yorkshire), amid the glorious scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. The Dales will forever be part of me, and I will never leave them.
My original degree is in pure mathematics, from the University College of North Wales, Bangor (1989-1992), before converting to Law at Huddersfield University (1992-1994). Subsequently, I completed a Masters Degree in Law, and then qualified as a Solicitor.
I have worked in a variety of locations, starting at North Yorkshire County Council, before moving (via another authority) into private practice with two delightful, and enormously knowledgeable, firms: Marrons of Leicester, and Wilbraham & Co in Leeds. Currently, I work for Middlesbrough Council, and consider myself fortunate that I thoroughly enjoy what I do.
I also help organise a music festival in Richmond (http://www.richmondlive.org/), and in what spare time I have, am an active member, and past Chairman, of Richmond Operatic Society (http://www.richmondoperatics.com/).
