I buy and renovate properties in one of the most beautiful places in the world – Northumberland. But when I’m not working on houses, I’m out testing myself, physically and mentally.

I live for adventure. Whether it’s abseiling into caves, free climbing mountains, running ultra-marathons, skydiving, wing walking, fire walking, ice climbing, or plunging into freezing water – if it’s tough, I’m up for it. The wilder, the better.

Life wasn’t always easy, but property gave me focus, and adventure keeps me sharp. My young family is my reason for pushing forward – to build something solid for them and show that anything’s possible if you’re willing to put in the graft.

That same determination drives everything I do, whether it’s taking on a challenge most people would walk away from or transforming a house into a home. If there’s a way, I’ll find it.
