I taught biology, geology and computer studies at Rannoch School, Wrekin College and Pitlochry High School before retiring and serving with the British Trust for Ornithology as Regional Officer for Perthshire.

I grew up in Rannoch and now split my time between there, where I run our small family business (Dunalastair Estate), and the north-west of England where I live with my wife Joanne, who works in the humanitarian sector. I'm a chartered surveyor with a background in rural property/business, and utilities, with degrees in archaeology and land economy. Rannoch is a beautiful melting pot of landscape, wildlife, human cultural heritage and community, and I love striving to ensure we get the balance right.
