From 2004 until 2022 I was Headteacher of Bournemouth School for Girls, where Olivia was a pupil for seven years, culminating in her appointment as Head Girl.

I  live in the New Forest, together with my wife and family, enjoying all that it has to offer.

I  am a member of The  Magic Circle and also currently President of the Wessex  Magical Association and am now embarking on a new career as a celebrant, magician and public speaker.
