Inspiring Conscious Change
I am an eco-consciousness pioneer that has walked a shamanic Plant Medicine path for over 28 years.
I found this path in 1997, while I working as a manager in a hotel in Machu Picchu, Peru. I fell down a mountain during my afternoon run, and thought I was going to die, but a tree saved me. That evening a Peruvian Amazon Shaman came to me in a vision and told me he had been waiting for me, could show me my purpose, and why I was still alive.
So I flew to the Amazon and found my teacher, Don Juanito (the Shaman from my vision), and became his apprentice. The experience changed my life and put me on a life-long path of aligning myself with the natural rhythms and flows of nature, and working with the Plant Medicines to help bring myself, my community and Nature, back into balance.
I facilitate monthly online New or Full Moon Online Ceremonies, Solstice and Equinox Ceremonies, Cacao Ceremonies, and Shamanic Journeys, It is essential ‘sacred time within sacred space’ to integrate, reflect and evaluate what is happening in your life, find clarity, and hear your intuition.
Ritual Cacao Ltd, my ceremonial-grade cacao company, sources directly from local communities from the Choco Andino Bio Reserve in Ecuador. Our farmer’s only grow organic ancient heirloom Fino de Aroma Cacao with absolutely no chemicals, and GMO/hybrids. Our farmers still use traditional agricultural practices, and we fairly trade with them, ensuring that every stakeholder flourishes, including the ecosystems that the cacao grows in.
I facilitate a yearly in depth Shamanic Cacaoista® Training for those who want to work with Cacao as a Master Plant Medicine from Sept- Nov 2026.
I am also Managing Director of The British Hemp Alliance. We are Hemp Phytoremediation specialists, and the UK’s leading organisation championing industrial hemp as a powerful environmental crop. The BHA advocates for the strategic use of industrial hemp to support the UK in the decarbonisation of industries, phytoremediation and advancing regenerative land use.
BHA is also part of consortium that has been funded for 5 years by Innovate UK to explore the benefits of Hemp as a carbon crop.

My Self-Published Memoirs
The Shaman’s Last Apprentice (2004)
The Making of a Modern Day Urban Shaman
The Shaman's Last Apprentice is the true story of my apprenticeship with an Ayahuasquero shaman. A vision, after a near death experience summoned me from the mountains of Machu Picchu and lead me to a little village tucked away on a tributary of the Amazon River. There I found the life changing medicine, learnt the ancient wisdom of the powerful plant Ayahuasca, and discovered the truth about myself. This book brings back a message of hope from this sacred place for these of instability and change.
Beyond Illusion (2019)
The Sequel to The Shaman’s Last Apprentice…
Beyond Ilusion charts in detail the metamorphosis process I went through after my profound Peruvian Amazon Plant Medicine apprenticeship, in 1998 with the maestro Don Juanito. It tells how I had to start ‘Living Shamanically,’ in order to rediscover my true self in the urban jungles of London. Come through the darkness of my own hopelessness, and go beyond the illusions of what I’d been conditioned to believe, to finally find the answers to my questions, ‘Who Am I?’ and ‘Why am I here?’ Beyond Illusion was printed with a hemp cover and unbleached recycled paper.
