Meaningful, imaginitive stories that help young readers understand empathy, feelings, and the online world.

I craft meaningful, imaginative stories that spark empathy, inspire curiosity, and help readers of all ages explore both their inner world and the world around them. My picture books gently guide younger children through feelings, relationships, and staying safe online, while his humorous junior fiction celebrates the pure joy of reading with engaging, laugh‑filled adventures. For middle‑years readers, I blend creativity and curiosity in his fun STE(A)M‑themed series, designed to ignite wonder and confidence in learning. I also write gripping young adult dystopian and thriller stories that challenge and excite, along with heartfelt, charming rom‑com scripts for adults. Across every genre, my work champions connection, understanding, and the delight of a great story well told.

It’s Up to U!

A warm and engaging picture book that uses alphabet characters to help children understand empathy, kindness, and the impact of online behaviour.
