Born in Carlisle 1968, and was educated at Morton Secondary School. Joined the Scots Guards at 16, serving with the Regiments Pipes & Drums, and reaching the appointment of Pipe Major in 2006. I have been the Pipe Sgt at the Army School of Piping & Highland Drumming, and have played in many countries all over the world, for Royal families and Heads of State including our own Royal Family, and was the Lone Piper at the Edinburgh Military Tattoo in 2007. I have written many tunes, some of which have been published in books and on CD.
I retired from the Army after 26yrs service and joined CVQO in March 2010.
I am also a Piping advisor working with the National Cadet Piping & Drumming Training and Advisory Team, based in Edinburgh.
