I was born in West Runton on the beautiful North Norfolk coast after my parents moved from London. I grew up in Watton and finally settled in Thorpe St Andrew with my wife, children, and two mad spaniels.

After running two independent businesses, I set up my own family confectionery business in 2021 called Sweet Smiles of Norfolk.

I love meeting other amazing businesses at local events, which is why I was so keen to become a Director of Buy Local Norfolk. Buying from an independent local business is such a rewarding experience, knowing that no matter how small the transaction, you are making a real difference.
