In my business I completed an apprenticeship for Openreach working on the telephone and broadband networks and in many residential and business properties in this local area. I am on the Chamber of Trade for Manningtree representing De’aths bakery where I am currently employed now, whilst currently in the process of purchasing The Bakery in East Bergholt, which is my own personal venture also. The area has provided me with a wealth of experience, memories and opportunity and I believe all that have lived here share this. In my personal life I have been a part of the Scouts, Army Cadets, Sailing Club, Cricket Club and many other groups.  I am in the Bakery trade because I believe in serving the community which has served you by bring quality to the lives of local people.
