Lee gave twelve years to the British Military, working in Intelligence, Bomb Disposal and Cyber Operations where he served in the most dangerous places in the world – Bosnia, Northern Ireland, Wales, Cyprus etc. The memories still haunt him to this day of a particularly bad hangover in Ayia Napa.

Lee went on to a second career as a professional hacker ending up directing a team of cyber experts tasked with hunting Nation State hackers. He has evicted hackers from the Russian GRU, Chinese MSS, Iranian IRGC, and appeared on Channel4 News accusing Russia of hacking into a UK TV station (which they denied so they obviously didn’t do it!).
He has now turned this unique history into inspiration for TV and Film and is working with production companies and producers to bring action packed stories with emotional currency to the screen.

Austin Film Festival 2nd rounder, BBC Studio Writer’s Academy last 100, Red Planet Prize finalist, C21 Media last 5 writers, Military consultant to the BBC.
