Personal History

Born 03/08/1990 Edmonton, London. I spent time with my father on Radio Caroline on the Ross Revenge when I was just 7 years of age, staying aboard the ship for their Restricted Service Licence broadcasts at Canary Wharf in the London Docklands and the Medway broadcast.

I grew up with an interest in transport, heavily influenced by London Transport and lived in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire.

I went to Yeovil College where I became an Executive Committee Member of the Yeovil College Student Union and later became Secretary in 2008. I was involved in the Somerset Strategic Partnership and 16-19 Agenda, I attended the Centre of Excellence in Leadership Conference in 2008 in London as a representative of Yeovil College.
