Welcome to my little corner of the internet. I am a writer with roots in County Mayo, Ireland and branches in New England. You’ll hopefully see pieces of those on this site. I spent a decade working in social services before transition to the hallowed halls of academia. The rest of the time, I am putting words on paper and hoping they make some sense.

I have been fortunate enough to three times retreat to the University of Washington’s Whiteley Center on San Juan Island, Washington and once to their Olympic Natural Resource Center. I spent a month at the University of Galway, Ireland learning about the Irish education system in Summer 2018. Summer 2019 was spent in Rome, Italy as was part of April 2023.
