Since leaving University in 1980 I have worked principally in the field of Personal and Business Management. Over the years I have been involved with the management of diverse creative personalities, from Chris Tarrant to Billy Ocean, Gilbert O'Sullivan to Jim Diamond, and David Icke to Larry Grayson. My greatest pleasure has been watching the development and phenomenal success of the two signings I have been most proud of, Jamie Hartman and Steve McEwan.I have also enjoyed strong associations with a number of charities. From 1989-2013 I was on the Main Fund-Raising Committee of Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy and in the mid-90's I did a stint as a Business Assessor and mentor for the Prince's Youth Business Trust (now The Prince's Trust)Having finally left the Music Business in 2009 I am still pursuing the art of managing people - most of my working time is dedicated to Business Management, Project Management and Property Management for High Net Worth individuals.I also enjoy occasional copy-writing projects that allow me to combine my love of words with my NLP qualifications to create "persuasive prose". As I get older (and wiser?) I am determined to allow myself more time to smell the flowers - I am currently spending as much time as I can in the Peak District where I am re-learning the art of breathing, seeing and feeling. I am also learning the noble art of fly-fishing on the Derbyshire Wye!I still yearn to cultivate and support creativity, and future projects will seek to further those aims...
