His favorite drink is Red Bull and favorite sport is Football.

Background

Enter DeepGoat

Gavin is first introduced in Spiders when Tariq and him visit their new office space, his Aunt Joan's garage. Gavin says he's just quit his job and would like to start his new company there. Aunt Joan demands rent, so Tariq and Gavin pay in Gardening. A couple of days later, while the two are getting ready to go to the bank to ask for a loan, Tariq gets a call from his girlfriend, Kate. Gavin mentions he gets bad vibes off her.

Gavin tags along with Tariq to Charlie's party. Gavin spots Steve hugging Kate and alerts Tariq. He distracts Steve by doing the funky chicken, giving Tariq time to go through his stuff. Tariq ends up leaving while Gavin and Charlie party afterwards.

Days later, Charlie asks Gavin for help, worried about Kate. Gavin looks up information left on Tariq's computer about Kate being Trait Positive. After hearing about the Hymn of One, Charlie says they have to go find Kate and warn her. As Charlie tries to open the door, however, it is locked. Gavin says he forgot the dead bolt, it locks automatically at 6pm. Cell phones wont work either. Gavin send the message through the blog to Tariq and anyone listening, to go to Carnaby Street at 10am. While locked in the room, Gavin and Charlie grow closer, posting several videos over the time they're trapped. Gavin admits he's attracted to Charlie.

Tariq confronts Gavin about the loan he took out, although nothing more about it is said in the blogs.

In The Prisoner, Steve suggested that Gavin was a member of the Hymn of One. Gavin later admitted that he had attended a Hymn of One meeting, but found it really boring. Tariq later urges Gavin to use that to convince Steve not to report Kate to the Police after what she did. After, Gavin complains that Tariq and him should be worried more about the business, not Kate and her creepy friends. Tariq convinces him to continue to help.

Gavin goes to Dr. William Griffin's house to ask if anyone knew what happened or if they knew anything about Kate. He runs into Dudley and later notices he's the cop from the day the Doctor died.

Gavin, Tariq and Charlie go to see Disturbia but Gavin gets kicked out for having a camera which he refuses to give up. He sat outside, waiting for the movie to end.

Charlie and Gavin and The Software

In False Alarm, Charlie confirms that she and Gavin slept together. She was also worried that she might have been pregnant, but she wasn't. After seeing the video, Gavin posts a short video saying he'll call Charlie. Later, Charlie posts parts of what Gavin calls a "very private tape", making "Keep Your Socks On" into his catchphrase. He asks girls at a bar what they think, saying Charlie's attempt to embarrass him has backfired.

Gavin saves Charlie from herself.

Gavin later sees a video Charlie posted about going to see Shia LaBeouf. He decides to go stop her and tell her how he feels. Although, when he gets to the bar she's at, Charlie's nowhere to be found. He grabs a drink and sits at the counter. He looks around and finally finds Charlie sitting alone at a table. He walks up to her, Gavin gives his coat to Charlie and the two sit together at a table. Gavin admits he likes Charlie and Charlie replies she likes him too.

Later, after things with Kate died down, Gavin and Tariq renewed their efforts to work on their software. In order to help them, they hired on Lee, a work experience trainee volunteer. Unfortunately, Gavin seemed to find humor in degrading Lee, who was working for nothing. As retaliation, Lee stole the only copy of their software in The Leak and posted videos that would lead both Gavin in Tariq on a treasure hunt around London to attempt to recover it. This strained their friendship, however, and the two now refuse to speak to each other.

Unfortunately, since Terrence showed up and they lost their software to the Order, Gavin has shown signs of violence and mental anguish (including split personality and paranoia). Gavin's mental state caused his relationship with Charlie to slowly deteriorate. She finally left him after learning that Gavin had formed a plan with Terrence to retrieve the software from the Order. Gavin attempted to follow her to Australia, but is stopped by Terrence and Tariq, who force him to go through with the plan, which ends poorly, with Gavin being arrested.

The New Year

Following Kate's murder, it is discovered that the Order pulled strings to have Gavin released from prison. He has gone to live with his Aunt Joan, while working in a pub cleaning dishes. In Group Hug, Gavin returns as JustIncredible.TV's new technical manager, a position which Tariq had been positioning himself for.

During Charlie's pitch on how to advertise for the channel, Gavin managed to convince Justin that he should tag along. The following week, Charlie, Gavin, Julia, and Lee went on a road trip to tour University communities to promote JustIncredible.TV. At first Gavin upset everyone by constantly bickering with Lee. However, after saving Lee's life, he was more accepted in the group, and gave up his vendetta against Lee for stealing his software.

Upon returning to work, Gavin begins noticing Justin's strange behavior, and discovers that he has put his office inside a bathroom. Gavin also finds that Justin is re-receiving packages that he had sent out, and concludes that he is committing carousel fraud, though he cites that Justin is not very good at it, as no one has been paid in two months. During the company Easter party, Gavin starts a walk-out, demanding that Justin pay his employees. Later, when the staff go to demand pay again, they find that Justin has split, and the group proceeds to steal the equipment as compensation.

Gavin and Charlie re-connect.

At the same time, Gavin tries to get re-involved with Charlie, who is immersed in finding out more about the missing girls. He accompanies her to Lauren's apartment, where they find Steve and Terry putting her in the trunk of their car. After Charlie races off after them and leaves him behind, Gavin goes to the pub to drink his worries away. When Charlie seeks his help a few hours later, she finds him doing work online and drinking only Orange Juice. While there, they run into Terry, who tells them that Steve is Kate's killer and that he's going to kill Lauren, and leads them to an abandoned bunker. However, Charlie and Gavin soon discover that Terrence is actually the murderer, and had begun working for the Order to avoid going to prison after the assault on the Hymn of One building on New Years Day. Gavin and Charlie escape, and run into Steve and Lauren, who had overpowered Terrence and made a break for it. Gavin and Lauren remain outside while Steve and Charlie go inside to look for Terrence.

When Charlie is abducted by Terrence, community members begin leaving voicemails on Gavin's answering machine, telling him to go to his Aunt Joan's house, where they are being held. When he doesn't answer, Lee sets out to find him, and he finds Gavin (and Lauren) in an ally blaming Steve for what happened to Charlie. Lee informs them where they are being held, and they go to Aunt Joan's house. There, they find that Terrence has doused the house in gasoline, but is chased away by the Watcher and Shadow before he can set in on fire.

Afterwards, Gavin confronts Charlie about her romantic interactions with Steve earlier in the night, and he orders her to leave.

Gavin's Return

After an almost month-long hiatus, Gavin made a blog mocking Steve's new cult, The Celestial Network. Days later, he runs into Lee and Meryl at the unemployment office, where he recommends Lee for a job in stealing software and bankrupting a business. It has been implied that he has been living with his Aunt Joan while looking for a job.
