Stearn was born at Eaton Bray in July 1980. He was educated at Bedford School, before going up to Worcester College, Oxford.[1] After graduating from Oxford, he undertook an MPhil in polar studies at St Edmund's College, Cambridge for a year, before three years of DPhil studies in weathering processes in desert environments back at Oxford.[2] During his MPhil period at Oxford, he made his debut in first-class cricket for Oxford University against Cambridge University at Fenner's in 2005. He made a second first-class appearance for Oxford University in the same fixture in 2006, this time played at Oxford.[3] He scored 71 runs in his two matches, with a high score of 38.[4] He gained a cricket blue while at Oxford.[2] In addition to playing first-class cricket, Stearn also played minor counties cricket for Bedfordshire from 2001–05, making six appearances in the Minor Counties Championship.[5] After completing his studies he became a geography teacher, where he taught at Bedford School and King Edward's School, Birmingham.
