Born and raised in Clare, Ireland.

On completion of a Bachelor of Science degree in Architecture in England in 2002, I spent 18 months working in New York City with Kohn Pederson Fox Architects.. Following this I started a Master’s study at the Faculty of Architecture TU Delft, The Netherlands, graduating in 2007 with a Master’s Degree in Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences.

Shortly after, I joined Scott Tallon Walker Architects, Dublin, working in the healthcare division. While working with STW, I took the Part 3 Professional Practice lecture series in University College Dublin. 

From 2011 I worked independently on projects both in Ireland and Germany before moving full-time to Dresden, Germany in 2013.

In 2014 I joined ARC Architekturconcept Gmbh,working on large scale projects in LP1-3 winning the contracts from three VGV competitions - one secondary school outside Hannover and two large apartment block complexes in Halle an der Salle and Halberstadt.

In 2016, I joined HDR (now Telluride Architektur) at their Berlin Office, working in the healthcare division on large scale Hospitals in LP3-5.

Following the birth of my daughter, I moved back full time to Dresden and worked with IPRO Consult on a large apartment & office complex in Dresden covering 10 buildings in LP5.
