About the Author

After thirty years of international travel in sales, he discovered the joys of making guitars at a school in Totnes, Devon and set out on a second career as a Luthier. Later, after relocating to Spain in search of warmer climes, he fell into teaching English while figuring out how to restart his business in a new country and learn a new language at the same time. Needless to say, out of practical necessity, teaching then overtook making guitars! After spells in New Zealand, back in Spain, and then again the United States, he returned to London, where he continues today as a language and business trainer. He has never stopped repairing guitars and plans to resume making them but most of all continues playing and learning new things every day!
