About
As a Manx national, my upbringing exposed me to an outside lifestyle which I totally enjoyed, utilising and experiencing all the island had to offer. I grew a passion for sea kayaking, fishing, mountain biking and various motorsports. My first passion was motocross racing, I competed for many years winning multiple championships consecutively. In addition to this, I have competed within the amateur ranks of UK boxing this taught me a great deal about discipline, dedication, and camaraderie with my teammates. Besides sport, I take great pride in maintaining and fixing my bikes to a clinical standard. Rebuilding old classical bikes with my father as a past time when not socialising with friends. I am a kind and compassionate individual with honesty and integrity at the heart of my ethos for life. I am disciplined and reliable and apply my high standards to my work ethic.
