I graduated from University of Liverpool in 2000, and my first job was in Hull where I stayed for two and a half years. I spent the next two years travelling, shirking the responsibilities of a mortgage and a family, until I was trapped by my now wife in 2004.

Rejecting all offers of stardom from Bollywood I have chosen to follow my childhood dream of being a small animal veterinary surgeon, and have settled with my young family in Aberdeen.

I enjoy walking, gardening and interstellar travel.
