About

I am a freelance fireworks and special effects pyrotechnician based in the North East of the UK.

I have always been interested in pyrotechnics and how they can be controlled to produce amazing displays and effects for both fireworks displays, tv, film and theatre.

In April 2008 I began training with 21st Century Fireworks and successfully passed the BPA Level 1 exam.

I then went on to complete the Stage Pyrotechnics Safety Awareness course and I am also a member of the Association of Stage Pyrotechnicians

Since passing the exam and gaining further experience as well as working for 21st Century Firework I have also worked for Alchemy Fireworks and Special Effects Solutions.

This has allowed me to work on all sizes of fireworks displays and special effects projects including:
  • Leeds Opera in the Park
  • Darlington South Park Fireworks Display
  • Top Gear Live
  • Northallerton Fireworks Display
  • Middlesbrough Fireworks Display
As well as working on fireworks displays and special effects. I also own and run the following websites:
