Born in Cambridge, I grew up in Over going to the Primary School, and then Swavesey Village College. I've lived relatively close to Cambridge my whole life, and have worked for local businesses large and small.

I moved back over to this side of Cambridge to be close to family in 2011 when we moved to Longstanton.

An Engineer by training, my focus has become global telecommunications and I now work for a California company that is at the cutting edge of telecommunications, enabling the Internet, Telecoms Operators and Businesses to scale and keep pace with the growth in demand for communication technologies.

I've always felt a strong connection with the local villages having grown up here, and was glad to be able to offer my support to the Parish Council. Longstanton has a long history as a village, and has strong ties with those villages surrounding it, and I look forward to helping Longstanton grow and develop over the coming years as our community grows, the development at Northstowe expands, and our village continues to be a desirable and family-friendly place to live.

I moved to Longstanton with my wife and then teenage daughter in January 2014 from my home village of Wistaston in Cheshire as one of the manufacturing sites I was managing was located close by.

Having worked on the Parish plan in Wistaston I recognise the importance of the Parish Council in developing and maintaining the village. So I'm pleased to have the opportunity to contribute to Longstanton, a village I've very much come to love since moving here, by becoming a Parish Councillor.
