Originally an IT tech, then a backpacker (for 5 years) and currently a teacher, Managing Director and published author. Life's about variety so I plan to make the most of it in any way I can!

The Moshville Times is a website I started some years ago as a hobby/blog. We now have around forty people working on it and it takes up a huge amount of my spare time.

I still teach (and love it), write when I have the opportunity and have recently had to pack in Krav Maga after several years due to “getting old”, basically. I managed to get to KMG Graduate Level 1 which was a nice way to finish my journey. I'll add this to my PADI Divemaster certification and LOLA (outdoor leader) qualifications.

I have had a couple of short stories published and if I could find the time then I'd work on a novel or three. So many ideas, so few hours in the day!

In the background are my ever-suffering family. Being a father takes up a lot of time, but is probably more rewarding than anything else I do. When the kids aren't driving me nuts, anyway.
