Travel, Imagery, Words & Languages are perhaps part of my genetic make up. Creativity and problem solving are also in my blood. At least that's one possibility.

Born in Epsom in 1965 with a twin I was at a Dutch school by the time I was 6 - then on to Belgium for a couple of years later at the British School of Brussels. Back in the UK for further education and some serious county tennis. As a teenager I met Diana Door's son Jason Lake and through him and others I met such people as Ringo Starr, Barbara Bach and Freddie Starr. Somewhat different to the Governor of Hong Kong, Chris Patten whom I met when with the International Heralad Tribune or the tennis and golf celebrities I would later be responsible for during their visits to the Territory.

By the age of 20 I was living and working in Hong Kong which lasted a fabulous 11 years. Three years in Thailand and 5 months in Malaysia rounded up my time in South East Asia before returning home to England after a near fatal accident on the roads of Bangkok.

Today I operate from home and have called my business  Heritage World Media. At this stage it is a collection of some of my work. A type of electronic portfolio.
