I have always been interested in how things worked from a young age, with a keen interest in engineering and electronics.
Over the years I have carried out many DIY projects at home and in my garage.
Whether it is fitting kitchens, bathrooms, tiling, I am always willing to take on the next challenge.
In 2022, with the rising cost of living, I started to explore ways to make my home more energy efficient. This lead me to buy and review products from the solar industry.
Along with my Brother, Joe, we formed AndWatt to help others in similar possitions.
My personal story
I live in Portishead, a small town on the outskirts of Bristol, with my partner Nikki, and our two children, Josh and Belle. We are lucky to be close to both our parents, having moved back "home" when Nikki became pregnant while we lived in London. They offer us a great support network (which we are both very grateful for!), and both Josh and Belle love having them so close.
Outside of AndWatt, I enjoy spending time with my family. We have created some fantastic memories, and it is great to be able to watch them grow. Pre Covid, our last (and best) family holiday was in Greece, where we soaked up some sun, enjoyed local cuisine, and spent hours every day with the children in the swimming pool.
We also have a furry family member, Archie, a black labrador. I never had dogs as a child, but Nikki grew up around them and was desperate to get a puppy as soon as the children started school. He has been a great addition to the family, and he gets me out of the house every day, come rain or shine!
Nikki and I both keenly follow formula 1. We have been to watch several races at Silverstone, and have been to a couple of Mercedes events where we saw Lewis Hamilton and Toto Wolf.
I also enjoy DIY and working on cars. We own a Mk1 VW Golf GTI, and a Lotus Elise. I dream of the day when I can get them back on the road - both projects started before children. My neighbour jokes that they might be finished by the time the kids are old enough to drive!
