I was born in Birmingham, and I have lived here all my life. I started out cartooning whilst at the University of Warwick, drawing for the student paper, The Warwick Boar. Upon leaving Warwick I eventually stumbled into a Masters course in Cartooning at UCE (they don't run it any more, don't ask), and when I left there I turned freelance.

I also have appeared in the Daily Telegraph, Birmingham Sports Argus, Construction News, Jewish Socialist, exhibitions including The Cartoonist's Progress and a series of advertisements for New Internationalist. In 2000 I was interviewed for a post on the New Paper in Singapore. I am a member of the Cartoonists Club of Great Britain and have recently joined the British Cartoonists Association.
'Learn to Draw Caricatures' is a book I wrote and illustrated for HarperCollins, and was published as part of their 'Learn to Draw' series.
