  Born in Edinburgh, brought up in Essex...moved westside then to the sea now currently located in Hackney('s) Wick(ed)...Life is sweet working for a great record label and listening to amazing new music on a daily basis.

My Interests

Documenting the world around us. DJing - playing a mix of different types of genres. Writer of poems, journals and short stories. Love dancing and basically taking the piss out of myself on the dancefloor, known for particular moves - the Hells angel stance and the shoulder shandy. Known to pole dancer in random places. Love to party in warehouses in east London and Berlin. Drinking fone wines and beers. Socialising and meeting nw people. Exploring vibrant cities, current fave is Berlin.
