About me

My name is Alan Parker and I’m a 30 year old father of 2 children. I was born in a town called Sutton Coldfield and spent most of my youth devising ways to escape from suburbia. The opportunity to escape came in the form of a University degree which took me as far south as Guildford.

At 21 I headed to London to work in PR for the next four years. While in London I spent too much money, ate bad food and drank warm beer. The highlight was that I managed to charm a rather sweet Swedish girl called Malin, who is now my partner and the mother of my child(ren).

After our stint in London, we packed-up and moved to Sydney, where we had our fist child, Freja. We spent three and a half wonderful years in Australia and got to see and experience things they don’t sell in your average package holiday catalogue. But, the lure of home was too much and we headed back to the UK.

I am now working for a multinational PR company on all things Digital PR in one of the coolest, most rewarding jobs I’ve ever had. As I hurtle past my 30 birthday, the most inspiring people in my life are still my parents along with Malin, my bis sis Al and her husband Seb and of course, my kids Freja and Ebba.
