Where are you from in Scotland?
I’m originally from Edinburgh where I went to school at Stewart’s Melville College. After 30 itinerant years in the Army (Scottish Regiments) I have settled in rural Perthshire.
What is your job title and where do you work?
I am the Programme Manager for HALO Iraq.
Why did you decide to join The HALO Trust?
HALO offered the challenge of a start-up programme in a country I was already familiar with. I hoped my private sector experience from working in conflict and post-conflict zones would be transferrable to the work HALO does.
What is the best thing about your job?
Measurable outputs.
What do you miss most about Scotland?
Rain and family.
