I am a firefighter in Parker County, Tx. with a passion for photography and media production. Originally from England, I moved to Texas when I was 7 years old. After graduating high school, I attended Texas Wesleyan University where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Technical Theatre. Having a passion for live production, I did a lot of work with live audio and lighting design and engineering for various events including weddings, concerts, rodeos, and theatre. Following graduation, I began working for the TCU Theatre Department as the Master Electrician, where I still work today.
After settling into this job, and marrying my wife, Taylor, in 2017, I decided that I wanted to be a firefighter. Firefighting was always something I was interested in, but had never pursued. So I threw myself headfirst into it and haven’t looked back since. Our daughter, Sarah Grace, was born in August 2019 and has completely changed our lives for the better. She always keeps me on my toes and is the motivation for everything I do.
