Coming up 20 years in May! Iโve seen a lot of change over that timeโespecially in the last few yearsโwhich has shown how important it is to stay flexible and adapt.

A great mix of office work and time out on the road with customersโno two days are the same.

Usually starts with admin, quotes, and catching up on emails. Then Iโm out visiting customersโtalking through ideas, introducing new products, and helping grow their range.

The variety and the people. Iโve built some great relationships over the years, and the Markwell team is always good for a laugh.

Family life with my wife Lisa and our three boys keeps me busy. Iโm also into mountain biking, getting back into golf, and working on restoring a 1980 Italian Lancia Coupe (slowly but surely!).

A relaxed BBQ at home with my dadโplenty of noise and good food.
