I currently live in London but had the pleasure of being born in Norfolk and raised in Suffolk, so it’s a small miracle that I only have the standard ten fingers and toes.
My youth was spent playing basketball by day and exploring the joys of warm cider in parks by night. I always knew drawing stuff was what I wanted to do and I proceeded to doodle my way through school.
Hence why Illustration was my degree of choice – three years drawing anything that came to mind was a pretty sweet deal and it confirmed being an Illustrator was the career for me.
Since the completion of my degree I’ve traveled the world, worked for Channel 4 Television, traveled some more and freelanced in various creative roles.
Creativity, a strange outlook on life and the ability to generate weird ideas have always been my main assets. Basically I enjoy what I do and hopefully that shows in my work.
