Hi, I'm Mark. I'm a poet, theologian, and community builder living in Cambridge, UK, with a lifelong fascination with the places where theology, philosophy, and science illuminate each other's blind spots.

I'm a Christian of the Anglo-Catholic tradition, rooted in the community of Little St Mary's in Cambridge, with a deep love of contemplative prayer shaped by Carmelite, Hesychast, and Zen influences. My faith is Trinitarian and Christ-centred, and I am a student of humanity in all its wondrous varieties, encountering the divine in beauty, love, and community wherever I find it.

I'm developing a framework for spiritual healing and formation, drawing on patristic sources, depth psychology, and contemplative practice, and exploring what it means to rebuild the conditions for deep Christian community in a secular age.

As a composer and songwriter, I am working on a sacred music album, The Golden Thread, blending folk, choral, and contemplative styles around themes of creation, exile, redemption, and mystical union. My poetry traces the same arc, moving from exile to homecoming through the landscapes of Christian mysticism.

I love to build communities of shared encounter: spaces of contemplative depth, meditative focus, and inner healing, walking alongside people at every stage of life's pilgrimage through parish communities, discipleship groups, and the living tradition of pilgrimage, including at the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham.
