This led to more recent studies and research when he embarked on the MSc Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) at Buckinghamshire New University graduating with distinction in 2019. His passion for writing has developed over this time and involved coaching manuals, student resources and books all related to teaching and learning. He regularly writes blogs for the Parallel Dreams Coaching Academy https://www.paralleldreams.co.uk/blog He wrote and published his first book in 2007; Parallel Dreams Alpine Skiing: Taking your performance to new levels.
