Theo studied Music Technology at college then went on to work in a company that made boat sails, he was trained to use a laser cutter to make large sails for boats. This was a full time job which he struggled with but managed to keep going for over a year before burning out and being unable to go anymore.
Over the last year he has learned alot about himself and how others sometimes help support his feelings and how they sometimes don’t! Which is why he is here today.
