No doubt related to growing up in Belfast during the 1970’s, I have been fascinated by crime for as long as I can remember.   Indeed, this fascination guided my career path and I have been a Chartered Forensic (and Chartered Counselling Psychologist) for the past thirty years. I worked, as a Psychologist, in various Prisons, Secure Units and in Child Protection.  I supervised the Psychologists working at the infamous HMP Holloway and for many years was an expert witness for the London Courts.  I currently work internationally as a Consultant Psychologist and I am also registered as a Media  Productions Psychologist.

Whilst living in Asia, I had a psychological crime novel published by Monsoon.  It is set in Singapore and Malaysia and is entitled ‘Straits and Narrow’.  I am currently in my second year of the MA in Creative Writing and Publishing at West Dean (Sussex University). As part of this course, I am heading towards completion of a second psychological crime novel.   This year, I have been listed in a writing competition and I have written plays (including a Murder Mystery) that have been staged.  For many years I have acted in local theatre and am very excited at being recently cast in an Agatha Christie play.
