Born in North Shields in Newcastle upon Tyne, he spent part of his childhood in Nigeria.[1] He was best known as member of the British boy band V, which he joined in 2003 along with four other boys. The band had three fairly successful chart hits during 2004, before splitting up in February 2005, less than a year after their first single was released.

He now works as a personal trainer.[2]
