He has amassed a huge social media following using just one mobile phone. Reaching 188,000,000 people in one week with 849,000,000 social media impressions in a month with no advertising or marketing spend.  

He is now also developing an interactive film with the heads of the infamous Bloods, Crips and Mexican Mafia gangs in South Central LA, an 8th interactive TryLife film in the North West as well as an interactive climate action app for small children and three interactive VR projects.  

TryLife is the old choice based adventure books brought to high-tech life for teenagers today. TryLife productions cover a range of subjects, such as social and welfare issues, educational topics and career options.
