Educated at the Rhode Island School of Design USA and the University of Sunderland UK where he completed a PhD in 2011, he has also been a Fulbright Fellow in Denmark. He won the International Glass Prize at Glazenhuis, Belgium, and his 2013 solo exhibition at National Glass Centre in Sunderland toured to the US.
