I am an extremely laid back and friendly person who goes out of his way for friends and clients.

Having graduated with a Double Honours in Modern Languages in 2001 and realising I was unlikely to become a foreign diplomat with diplomatic immunity I went into the world of sports journalism three days after my final University exam.

The idea was to use my languages on the International Desk but I was poached by the sports desk and I can honestly say I don't think I have used my language "skills" since some time in any meaningful capacity since then.

The sports writing was fun at times but it did not appear to be the career I seemingly craved and so I left to join a fledging mortgage brokerage which I subsequently took over and have been running ever since.

I now find myself happily married (5 years last Sep) with two gorgeous sons, and a member of countless on-line networking sites and only just getting hooked on Twitter and blogging. I'll post some links when I figure out how.
