Behind the words

Irish roots. A home in Hove. A curiosity that travels.

I write about the stories close to home and the interests that take me further afield: local communities, football, music, travel and everyday life.

My work appears in Oxfordshire Guardian, Sussex Guardian, Sports Star, The Leisure Society, Nanny McPhee, Travelbite and This Is Brighton. I also explore mythology and folklore through Finn McCool and The Myths. My background in e-commerce leadership, digital marketing and fraud prevention informs my business and technology features.

Every story starts with a conversation.
