Born in London, he graduated from Aberdeen University before starting a career in the British Army.

As an officer in the Royal Corps of Transport and later the Royal Logistic Corps he spent much of his career abroad, serving with the Brigade of Gurkhas in Hong Kong, the British Army of the Rhine and the Belize Garrison.  He saw operational service in Northern Ireland and the Gulf.  In Scotland he served with the Territorial Army as Adjutant of the Lowland Transport Regiment in Glasgow and later as Commanding Officer of the Scottish Transport Regiment in Dunfermline.

From 1999 to 2003 he served at the Baltic Defence College in Estonia assisting with the training of officers for the armed forces of the newly independent Baltic States, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

In his final appointment in the Army he headed up the movements planning team within the armed forces staff responsible for global movements and logistics.

After 36 years service he retired from the Army in summer 2012 and now lives in Perth with his wife, having owned a property in the city since 1999.

He joined the SNP just prior to the 2011 Scottish Election and was first elected to represent the Perth City Centre Ward in May 2015. He was re-elected for the same ward in May 2017 and May 2022, and was elected Depute Provost of Perth and Kinross on 25 May 2022.

His other interests include military history and railway history.
