Although Frederick is his first name, I am known by my friends and colleagues as Tony, which is my Middle name. During my school days I was a real trouble maker and because I was not interested in conforming, found it to be a real challenge. I was keen on athletics and particularly in track and field where sprinting was my specialty.
I graduated from the college of commerce and worked for Thompson Regional Newspapers in Aberdeen, where I became the manager of the design art studio and was heavily involved in advertising, marketing and promotions. Following that, I went on to be the creative director of an advertising agency, was heavily involved in the print industry and subsequently migrated into a business development role in upstream oil and gas. In my younger days in the 70's, I was a drummer in various rock bands, wrote many songs and jingles, and was an accomplished painter and artist.
I was also was a keen on amateur dramatics, and played countless rolls on stage. Now at the age of 62, I have started writing and enjoy this latest chapter in my life.view less
