Residency: Dronfield

Job/Pre-retirement job: IBM Account Manager

Family: Married with two young children

Interests and hobbies: I enjoy most sports, but actively play golf and snooker. I’m also a keen hiker, having completed a number of “Three Peaks Challenges” (both Yorkshire and National) in aid of local charities.

Why I’m a councillor:

I do not have a background in politics. I have mainly been politically apathetic until recently.

The proposal to build an incinerator in the immediate vicinity of 20,000 people caused me to act. Representing the opposition of thousands of Dronfield residents, I successfully lobbied both local and regional councils.

By combining this recent experience with my varied life and professional experiences, and by working across traditional party lines, I hope to keep Dronfield a great place for everyone to live and work.
