About

A little introduction…

My name is Glen and I grew up in a little coastal town in Wales called Tenby. I studied in my hometown until I was eighteen years old focusing on subjects like computing and graphic design in my final years of sixth form. After this I decided to pursue graphic design and moved to Cardiff to study at the University of Glamorgan (now named the University of South Wales). I loved living in Cardiff in addition to the lifestyle and independence it provided as I was eighteen years old and moving out of my family home for the first time.

After finishing my studies there I decided to apply to work at a summer camp in America. I was the ropes director at a camp in Minnesota and was in charge of activities such as high and low ropes, climbing, zip line and bouldering wall.

Since university I have worked as creative director of a print studio (digital canvas and fine art) and in the summer camp industry amongst other roles and projects. I had such an amazing time at camp that I wanted to share my experience and help others heading to the US and Canada for their summer seasons. I am an Independent Ambassador for Tropic Skincare. You will find more information in the menu and a link to my shop. I am also a Partner with Utility Warehouse, providing quotes on household bills and saving customers money where possible!

Since March 2022 I’ve been a Samba Doc band member. We are a community band based in Pembrokeshire, concentrating on mastering pieces that combine the traditional samba sound with samba reggae, raga, hip-hop and funk influences. During my first season I trained and played on a low surdo drum before moving onto repinique later that year ready for the following season. I also play other instruments in the band including mid surdo and snares from time to time.

Thanks for visiting my website, this is just a small introduction into me. Have a great day!

Be an optimist. Be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. Make all your friends feel there is something in them. Look at the sunny side of everything. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Be as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticise others. Be too big for worry and too noble for anger.
