I first became interested in the subject of UFOs and the Paranormal at an early age and after leaving secondary school I studied at both South and North Trafford Colleges in the UK along with GEC Electrical for over 10 years and obtained a Degree in Electrical Engineering. During this time I began conducting research which lead to numerous investigations which I carried out on my own, until opening Cheshire UFO Group. In the early 90's I worked in Essex for NATO - (RAF Weatherfield) as a Telecommunications Specialist.
