About the author

Tim O'Sullivan came from incredibly humble beginnings. Born to Irish immigrants, he and his siblings lived a hand-to-mouth existence when their father abandoned them and their mother.

Coming from an impoverished background and with little in the way of a career ahead of him, Tim worked his way through many different jobs before eventually taking up an apprenticeship as a refrigeration engineer. Eventually, Tim set up his own company.

Tim managed to overcome his dirt-poor beginnings to establish a successful business, suffering heartbreaking loss along the way and prejudice as the child of immigrants.

Having come from a childhood that offered few prospects, he would go on to build a successful refrigeration and air-conditioning business and later a property company in Leicester.
