His background and qualifications in engineering and medicine have taught him the value of accurate and precise observations. He is currently acknowledged by his peers and leading academic parapsychologists to be one the leading investigators in the UK.
Steve has been closely involved with many investigations and has developed several methods and techniques that are now routinely used by other investigators. His forthright and no-nonsense approach is well known throughout paranormal investigation circles and he has a hard-won reputation for producing results.
