I attended Wellingborough School from 1977 to 1981. I am a Senior Lecturer in American Politics at the University of Northampton, where I have taught since 1992. As a specialist in the study of U.S. elections, I am an active member of the UK American Politics Group. Locally, I am also the chairman of the Northampton Branch of The Historical Association and former chairman of the Northamptonshire Archaeological Society.
