He studied English and linguistics at Department of Linguistics and English Language of the Lancaster University between 1995 and 1998, before training as an actor from 1998 to 1999.

He appeared in the 2006 summer season at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, and while there began writing Shakespeare on Toast: Getting a Taste for the Bard, published in 2008.
