I see myself as an entrepreneur with a flare that has allowed me to set up a specialist security company, co-own an innovative young people’s organisation and establish Always an Alternative, a non-profit created to challenge the mindset of young people around problems that they may face.

My passion is to make a positive difference, by helping others to see and become the amazing human beings that they are. Additionally, to make change by challenging things I don't think are right.

I've had many achievements: a Degree (1st), Masters (Distinction), both Regional and national awards. Despite being dyslexic, I wrote a book called One Knife Many Lives, which looks at the wide spread devastation that knife crime causes. I've also prevented over 500 weapons from reaching the streets of South Yorkshire by providing free weapons collections in communities and raising funds to install 8 portable weapon amnesty bins.
