The 29-year-old moves to the Tigers from Pitching In Northern Premier League Premier Division side South Shields, where he had been since November 2021 after arriving from National League side Barnet.
He had joined the Bees in September 2020 from rivals Wrexham, who he joined in June 2019 following his release by League Two side Grimsby Town.
He spent the second half of the 2018/19 season on a loan spell with the Dragons` league rivals Bromley, scoring 19 goals in 25 games, having switched to Hayes Lane in December 2018.
He caught the eye of Newcastle United while playing for Cray Wanderers, signing a two-year scholarship with the Magpies in August 2011 and, the following day he scored a hat-trick against Chelsea under-18s.
After several loans away from St James’ Park he joined Northampton Town during the summer of 2013, but it was with Havant & Waterlooville in 2014 where he started to hit his true form.
He scored 13 goals in 37 appearances for the Hawks earning a move to then-League Two with Port Vale.
After a brief loan back to Northampton he joined Grimsby in 2017.
