ABOUT ME

Filmmaker . Director . Writer.

Passionate about storytelling from a young age, I knew that a career in the film industry was the perfect way for me to bring my creative visions to life. After completing a film and media degree in Ireland, I crossed the pond and picked up a journalism degree in Boston. While in college, I began honing my skills as a photographer, starting with models in need of portfolio work and eventually working with national event companies and some of Ireland's biggest bars and nightclubs as an on-location photographer.

Inspired by my experiences in photography, I began making short films in college, and most recently wrote & directed the short film "People Do Bad Things" with an incredibly talented but small crew. The film won short film awards and was shown all around Ireland, and  is currently in early development to be turn it into a TV show.

In addition to directing, I also gained valuable experience as an assistant director at Ardmore Studio's, working on shows like "Penny Dreadful" and "Into the Badlands". My writing career took off while studying journalism, and I was able to get published in local papers, eventually turning down a job at the Boston Globe to pursue more creative endeavors.

Currently, I live in Dublin and work as a freelance AD and Camera Assistant on different projects and developments. I still work as a production assistant for Great Island Media, making short films and pilot episodes, as well as working with Isla Media for corporate work. With a diverse skillset and a deep passion for storytelling, I am excited to continue creating impactful and inspiring films in the future.
