My journey to entrepreneurship and running a successful business has been complex. I now share my experiences through the delivery of keynote speeches, beginning with me leaving home at the age of only 16 to the establishment of Superstar PAs, now a six-figure business with a team of 16 associates. Throughout this journey, I have faced various challenges and significant trauma. I discuss how I navigated these obstacles and share insights gained from my experiences.In addition to my speaking engagements, I offer consultancy services to micro and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) seeking to enhance their business operations. My focus is on improving and implementing effective processes and procedures tailored to each business's specific needs.I conduct comprehensive reviews of existing processes within organisations and provide recommendations based on my experience with successful enterprises. This approach is designed to identify areas for improvement and optimise overall operations.

Working across Greater Manchester and beyond, Mancunian Way work to reduce anti social behaviour (ASB) through prevention and early intervention; to 'nip things in the bud’ before they become a bigger problem.All of our work is face-to-face, either in venues or on the streets, as we believe it is impossible to reduce ASB or stop someone from offending if you are sat behind a desk reading Government policies, sending endless emails and holding meetings that lead nowhere. But we all need to do our part as well, we can’t just sit back and wait for someone else to solve our problems. As a society, we have become too reliant on the Council, Police and Government to solve all our problems for us, the truth is they can’t solve them, only we may need some help and support to do it, but the responsibility to improve our communities is still ours.
