When I turned thirteen, my best friend and I attended a Bon Jovi concert at Wembley Stadium. Captivated by the experience, we decided to form our own band. A decade later, this venture evolved into The Lightyears. Over time, we've had the remarkable opportunity to perform internationally, visiting places from Cape Town to South Korea, and taking the stage at the Glastonbury Festival and O2 Arena. We've even had the chance to support legendary rock figures from groups like Queen, Journey, and The Who. While we never reached the same heights as Bon Jovi, we did achieve the thrill of playing at Wembley Stadium four separate times, each in front of over 45,000 fans.

Despite my musical journey, writing has always been my greatest passion. In 2014, I realized this dream by publishing my novel, MOCKSTARS, which drew inspiration from the tour diaries I kept with The Lightyears. It wasn't long after that I spent three months ghostwriting for a One Direction fan club, an experience that sparked the idea for a young adult novel. This concept creatively wove an intense teenage romance into the dynamic world of a popular boyband, resulting in the trilogy SONGS ABOUT A GIRL. Hodder Children's picked up the series in 2015, and it's since been distributed in numerous countries across the globe. The first book is currently available in all major bookstores.
