Graeme is an educator, writer, musician and priest, living in the northwest of England.
Born in Liverpool, brought up on The Wirral, he achieved a first-class honours degree from The Open University, a PGCE, then a Master’s in Education from the University of Central Lancashire, which included published, original research. From 2014 to early 2026, he worked at Wirral Met College, teaching, mentoring, and delivering accounting, business, and teacher education, as well as undertaking a secondment as a Teaching and Learning Coach and a short period as a Pastoral Support Mentor. He also currently works as a private tutor, providing 1:1 tutoring in A-level subjects (Accounting, Economics, Business, Religious Studies) and AAT accounting.
Graeme trained for ordination in the Church of England at Trinity College, Bristol, becoming a deacon, then a priest, and serving as an Assistant Curate, then a Priest-in-Charge, in the Diocese of Chester in stipendiary positions, before taking a break. He is currently a Self-Supporting Minister serving as Associate Minister in a parish in the Diocese of Chester.
Brought up in the choral tradition, Graeme sang in his school chapel choir from the age of 11-19, then also sang in the National Youth Choir of Great Britain. More recently, he sang with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Chamber Choir for a short time. Graeme writes and, very occasionally, performs his own piano music, some of which is available on popular streaming services.
He has also worked as a semi-professional photographer, with many of his images appearing in national and international newspapers, books, textbooks, and other publications.
Graeme set up a publishing business, Quo Vadimus Media Ltd, in 2019, to write and publish his own textbooks on accounting, and is expanding this business in 2026 to cover other publications.
He has recently completed an NPQLTD and is currently studying for the CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management, reflecting his interest in personal and organisational development.
