Cliff's career has taken a circuitous route from catering to working as a croupier in top London casinos, before transitioning to roles in the British government and education sectors.

In 2015, Cliff moved to Geneva, where he worked for two NGOs before joining a prestigious hospitality and business school. When he has the time, he actively volunteers for local charities and has volunteered at events like the World Fondue Championship and Geneva Marathon. Cliff is also actively working to improve his spoken French, further embracing life in Switzerland.
Although not writing specifically within the LGBTQ+ genre, Cliff is proud to be a member of the community and has been with his partner for over 23 years.

An avid runner, he competes in races throughout the year, using the discipline gained from running in all aspects of his life. When he's not writing, you'll find him cooking, crafting his signature James Bond-inspired "Shaken, not Stirred" Vodka Martini, or exploring new hiking trails in the Swiss Alps.

The Hive Codex is Cliff's debut novel, written between the vibrant city life of Geneva and a peaceful Swiss mountain village.

Looking for representation.
