CURRENT MISSION

To travel and see the world, to grow as a person.

ABOUT ME

I am a film maker, event organiser and artist living in Liverpool. I am open minded, creative, musical, ambitious, care free and easy going. I'm really optimistic and always try to see the positive side of a situation. I like playing guitar, spinning fire poi, making art and inspiring others. I have a random sense of humour and have lots of funny stories from my past and about stuff I have seen.

I lived and worked in the Ardéche, France in the summer of 2010. I met my friend Jack working there and since then we have travelled in Europe together each Summer. We couch surfed 4 times on our last trip and I loved each experience. Europe was a breath of fresh air to inspire me in my final years of study at University. I can't wait to go travelling again this year in August with Jack again.

I am a founder of The Lemon Collective in Liverpool, a collective of friends that host cultural variety shows and exhibitions in the city. It is one of my passions to promote the work of emerging artists and performers because I think it is important for people to have a platform for their creative work. Take a look on our website and if we are hosting an event when you want to visit Liverpool:

PHILOSOPHY

...If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
[Rudyard Kipling]
