Footballer

Biography:

I started playing when I was 5 & played county football through my teens. I’ve played semi professionally since I was 15. Professional clubs scouted me but found out I was deaf and weren’t interested.

GB found me when I was 18 playing for England in the World Cup in Greece (2008). Playing for GB in Deaflympics 2009 in Taiwan, is still my best experience ever.

I’m very competitive and also play for England Deaf Cricket Team. My love of travel and animals were combined on my favourite holiday; a safari trip in South Africa where I also proposed to my wife in 2022. I’ve been modelling since I was 18 & have lived in New York & Los Angeles. I’ve appeared on TV programmes, such as SAS Who Dares Wins & Deal or No Deal.
