When not freelancing I work within a family business specialising in radio communications and vehicle communication equipment installations. I therefore have a basic insight working with electronic equipment.

My hobbies and sporting activities - I like scuba diving and have passed my first PADI exam. I also regularly attend my local fencing club on a twice weekly basis.
I think I stand out compared to other young men because I am definitely a perfectionist and a committed person as well as being passionate and enthusiastic about both working alone or as a member of a team. My onset peers have described me as being well organised and an asset particularly when in the role of 2nd AD.
I live just outside of Wellington (UK) on the Devon/Somerset boarder and have my own transport.
