About

British. Grew up on The Wirral in England, now based in Chicago with my wife Allie and our goldendoodle Chip. I work in GTM at Salesforce — previously at Stripe.

Outside of work you'll find me at Windy City S&C, training for triathlons, or sneaking in a quick pint at the pub. Ironman finisher (Cozumel 2025). Stoke City supporter.

Now

Sustainability

I import and resell pre-owned Barbour jackets from the UK to the US. Barbour is one of the few things made to last — wax jackets that can be re-waxed and worn for decades. Buying second-hand extends that life further.

It started as a personal thing: easier access to pieces that are genuinely hard to find stateside, at prices that make sense. Now it's a small side operation. Everything listed is authentic, sourced from the UK, and described accurately.
