How did you start in basketball and when did you start playing?
I started playing at my basketball court at school when I was 8 years old. I took one shot and got hooked straight away. I have played for Derby Trailblazers, Leicester Riders, Sheffield Arrows, East Durham, Bradford Dragons and Leicester Warriors.
Your greatest achievement?
One of my greatest achievements was receiving a scholarship to a Junior College in New Jersey.
Dream Team
This is a difficult one as there are a lot of players I like but I would say:
Allen Iverson
Kobe Bryant
Micheal Jordan
Lebron James
Shaquille O’Neil
Interesting fact
I am allergic to shellfish, and if someone is cooking the food near me my face will swell, like Will Smith in the movie Hitch!
