I was born in Bristol, England on March 16th 1982 and now reside in the Cotswold town of Wotton-Under-Edge with my wife Emily. I am an animal science graduate with a real passion for animal welfare and behaviour. I wrote my debut novel as a hat tip to my studies and as a way of bringing the humble wildebeest to the public's attention.
Since graduating from university, I've had a long career in animal welfare before moving into teaching animal husbandry at college level
