I’m an illustrator and storyteller living and working in Dublin. Heavily inspired by folklore, mythology and fantasy, I like to work on a diverse variety of projects, from picture books to visual development. I’m deeply invested in worldbuilding and speculative design, and I have a strong interest in narrative illustration, the intersection between physical and digital media, and the bridge between traditional culture and modern life.

I graduated from the National College of Art and Design with first class honours in Illustration and Visual Culture in December 2023. My 2023 graduate work “Guerilla Seanchaí” was also commended in the 2023 IDI Graduate Awards in Belfast. In 2022, I received the inaugural Alternus Energy Sustainable Arts Initiative Award for work completed during my third year of study in NCAD.
