Whilst at sixth form, he was advised to re-take his GCSE in English Literature in the hope of getting into a good university. From there he took writing classes and for research watched Baz Luhrmann’s movie of ‘Romeo + Juliet’.He has received a degree in Graphic & Media Design from the University of the Arts London at the institution London College of Communication, graduating in 2016.
