Graduating from Falmouth University with a degree in English with Creative Writing (BA Hons), Joe could have got a First but was too busy starting and running businesses. During the final year of university Joe was working as Commercial Manager for Wavelength Surf Magazine and running the Student Surf Tour, the UK’s first inter-university surfing league. Wavelength Magazine fell victim to the decline in print and hadn’t adapted well to the world wide web, so Joe decided to jump ship before it sank. After surfing around the world, Joe settled back in the UK and applied his knowledge to the world of classic cars, (with small foray into high end audio equipment). Joe has owned more than 120 cars.
