To say I have an eclectic background is perhaps a little bit of an understatement, having worked for many years as a musician, then an actor, then a musician again while, along the way, working as a motorbike courier, bar man, tour guide, music teacher, civil servant, wedding singer, receptionist, voice-over artist, door-to-door salesman and a world-famous male model.*
However some years ago, after going to film school and getting a 1st class MA in writing for Film and Television, I was happy to settle down and become a full-time Writer and Producer.
* One of these may not be true.
