Phillip was born in 1950 and raised in Melbourne, Victoria. After
graduating in business studies (Accounting) he worked at two
Aboriginal communities in the Kimberley, WA. His interest in
community development led him to India in 1977 to work with a local
non-government organisation in village planning and training
programs.
On coming back to Australia in 1984, Phillip returned to his
original profession and set up an accounting and taxation practice
in Katherine, NT. In 1992 Phillip returned to Melbourne to
undertake postgraduate studies in environmental science at Monash
University. After graduating in 1996 he moved to Cairns, Qld, to
take up a position within the Queensland public service.
Upon reaching his sixtieth birthday, Phillip retired and began a
new adventure as a writer. Phillip became a member of Tropical
Writers, Cairns, in 2016 and enjoys drawing on his own life
experiences as the inspiration for his writing.
