Welcome to the Homepage
of my website
From my home in Sedbergh in Cumbria I offer a number of media–related services including writing, translation, website design and commercial photography.
I took a degree in French European Studies and Maths at UMIST (Manchester University), and then spent a year as a hospital porter and advertising space salesman before starting what turned out to be several years work in radio, mostly with BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio Scotland, on magazine programmes such as You and Yours, Good Morning Scotland, Woman's Hour and Countryside in Spring.
I then trained as a teacher and taught Graphic Design, German and French at schools in Tameside, Greater Manchester, and English as a foreign language to adults and children in England, Iceland and Denmark. On giving up full–time teaching I returned to the media, but this time as a writer, photographer, translator and, more recently, website designer.
