I currently reside in London, England and work within the TV industry. I have travelled extensively, and settled in Japan for a few years. My wandering feet are now tied down with a job and a new family, and a new adventure begins.
I write, when time permits, and am currently working on a film and a book of gruesome poems. My family "grew some" with the relatively recent birth of my daughter, who keeps me very busy. Will I ever finish a project? I struggled when it was just me!
