Currently President of the Chamber of Commerce, in his day job Chaz runs a public relations and marketing firm based in Guildford, promoting clients locally, nationally and internationally. He was brought up in West Sussex and then went to college and lived in London for ten years. He has lived and worked in Guildford for twenty years and is a passionate supporter of the local area.

Chaz is married with three children, aged 14,12 and 5 and says he spends his free time ferrying the kids around from one activity to another, whether that be ballet, drama or football. His hobbies include walking, cooking, drinking Spanish and Italian red wine, and music. He’s just painstakingly digitised his entire vinyl collection of 1000+ LPs and put them on his iPod and can be seen wandering around Guildford and over the Downs with headphones on, normally in a world of his own! He also likes to keep quiet about the fact that he is a West Ham supporter, as that’s where his family originates from, and if you ask him he will say that West Ham won the World Cup for England — so don’t ask him about that ….
