After high school in Finland, moved to the Kingdom of Sweden to attend University at the LiU (Linköpings Universitet) www.liu.se where I studied Social studies.

After returning to Finland I have independently studied diplomacy, and might return back to University, but this time in Finland, to study Politics. In early 2008 I also became a citizen of Finland, thereby being a dual-national of both Finland and the UK. I do however for all intents and purposes use my British citizenship - and consider myself more British than Finnish.

Joined the Order of Prince Daniel of Kholm in April 2009, with the title of Kt.OPD, and was appointed Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Republic of Finland. Later the same year, was appointed to head up the Order's passport production as Head of the Passport Department under the Office of Information, Protocol and Verification.

Currently working on the passport production, and as Envoy to Finland, on the website for the official Legation.

As a member of the Order, I have chosen three charities, to which I donate regularly; The Barnabas Fund, Camfed and the British Red Cross. Naturally I do on occasion donate funds to other charities, such as for example the rehabilitation of Finnish War Veterans, who defended Finland in the Second World War against invading forces. My own grandfather on my mothers side was killed in action during the Winter War, and awarded several medals by the Commander of the Army, General Mannerheim.
