I am responsible for the team of officers who police the eastern areas of the Chester Outer Neighbourhood Policing Team. I joined Cheshire Police in 1996. As a Constable I worked in the towns of Runcorn and Widnes before being promoted to Chester as Sergeant in 2004.

I have worked in many differing roles, including the Pro Active CID, Divisional Drugs Team, Customer Service Desk and Targeted Patrol Team. I have lived in Chester all my live, so I have a vested interest in making our community safer. My team and I are keen to hear your views on local policing and how we can improve the quality of life for local residents. Please feel free to contact me or the team.

I have been a member of the Cheshire Constabulary for 23 years. I was born in Edinburgh but I started my working career in England as a professional footballer.
I started my career working in Chester city centre in 1985. Most of my service has been in community policing in Chester and I have also worked in the Handbridge area. Currently I cover all areas of Chester Outer providing shift coverage to tackle imminent issues and crime investigation.

I've covered the Upton wards since February 2007. I enjoy the variety of my role and like meeting and helping members of the public. I believe the Upton wards provide me with a diverse array of tasks because the wards have a bit of everything, from the Chester Zoo to a small section of the Dale army camp. Before joining Cheshire Constabulary I worked as a customer liaison officer at Cheshire Oaks and found that a retail environment helped my communication skills. I am always keen to meet members of the Upton community and would encourage you to come and say hello. Outside of work I enjoy riding my motorbike and socialising with friends.
