HW Staff profiles

Marc Winstanley

Marc is in charge of keeping everything clean! Actually, this picture is the only one in existence of Marc using a vacuum cleaner! If there is a musical instrument this guy can't play, it must be the bagpipes. He can play keyboards, drums, guitar...yawn yawn. He can even sing!

Find him at Preston!
