About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My main mission in life is to leave the place a slightly more positive place. Even if that is only with a small group, my family and friends then I will feel I have done my bit in this world. But if I could help in a larger way, I would like to.

ABOUT ME

I'm often described as easy going. I find enjoyment and interest in all sorts of things. My major passion is story telling, in books and film.
I'm an introvert but love people's company.

PHILOSOPHY

'You're choice is who you choose to be and
If you're causing no harm then you're alright with me'
Ben Harper
