I was born in Montego Bay-Jamaica. I was premature and slow for the first nine years of my life. My first year at secondary school I came first in my class to my mother's surprise. At fifteen I went to London where I finished my secondary education at Spencer Park School. When I left school I worked with Sainsbury Construction as a training Draftsman. Years went by when I went freelance and took a contract in Papua New Guinea where I worked for the Government as an Engineer. After which I was accepted at the University of Sydney where I did my Masters degree in Engineering, I graduated in 1985. Since then I became a Writer.
