I am originally from Tonbridge, but have lived in the Maidstone area for 20 years. I have an 11 year old son and live with my partner and our dog named Bruce. (See if you can work out the name connection from my picture!) I am a typical Man Utd fan in the sense that I don't come from Manchester. However, I do have a season ticket so can lay claim to the fact that I have seen them play "live" dozens of times! I like most sports including football, rugby and enjoy playing golf. I have recently taken up shooting as new hobby. I love spending time with my son and socialising with family and friends, including a love for live music- therefore going to gigs is a must for me. Finally, I have to admit to being a Batman geek and I am always looking looking for items to add to my collection!
What advice would you give to your younger self? Eat less cheese and do more sit ups!

I have worked in Maidstone and surrounding areas from the age of 16. I live in Walderslade with my other half, daughter, one eyed elderly white boxer dog Frankie & energetic greyhound Boris. In my spare time I enjoy long country walks with my dogs & being a personal groom for my daughter when she's horse riding. What advice would you give your younger self? To believe in myself more

Chris has enjoyed a seven year career in Estate Agency and pools together both letting and residential sales experience in that time. Chris has recently joined Sandersons from a branch manager position, covering Maidstone and Ashford. Due to a surge in business within the Land and New Homes department in Sandersons, there has been a need to expand the business in this direction and this is what Chris has come in to do as a Senior New Homes Negotiator. His role is to drive the teams in Kent to sell the current stock that Sandersons have taken to the market and assist the teams in bringing in new business and building long term relationships with developers.
What do you like most about Sandersons approach?
I joined Sandersons as I feel that they are a consistently growing business and in this excites me very much. I hope to continue the journey with Sandersons to grow even further!
I have been local to the Maidstone area for near 30 years which may give a hint as to my age! I grew up in Wateringbury which is a charming Village outside Maidstone and went to school over at Mascalls in Paddock Wood giving me a good knowledge of a wide range of locations. My main base has been Maidstone in my career and over the last seven years I have dealt with a vast array of people and properties in the area. I enjoy walking – especially if the end of the walk is a pub and have kept my new year’s resolution to eat well and go to the gym! I am currently learning Italian as I am off to Naples in Italy with my girlfriend in the Summer (as we both worked far too hard to have a holiday last year!).
What advice would I give my younger self?
I would have started going to the gym much earlier and ideally not developed a taste for a fine whisky!
