Biography
I grew up in Ireland, moved to London in 1986, then Scotland in 1988. I’m married with three kids all in their 20s.
My wife and I met on an airfield - we were both skydivers. I spent over 20 years as a skydiver, active in the UK and internationally, including 10 years as a parachute instructor and skydiving coach
Most of my working life has been managing projects in large organisations, and frequently delivering training on business topics & tools. This included PwC, IBM, Scottish & UK governments, various banks, NHS and police forces. I currently work in a national police service, where I have current Security Clearance and police vetting.
As a sideline I’m a trained hypnotherapist, having started studying hypnosis for sports performance. I have also performed several stage hypnosis shows.
I enjoy swimming, mainly open water, occasionally in ice water.
