Growing up in Ireland, stories and storytelling have always been present in my life. Knowing I was dyslexic from an early age I was determined to read all the more. When I discovered I didn’t think in the same way as others when it came to creativity my interest in narrative grew. 

I studied English Literature and Film Studies at Trinity College, Dublin where I first became interested in filmmaking. I ran the Filmmaking Society, encouraging people to be as interested in filmmaking as I had become. When I graduated I moved to London to attend the LFS. I found it difficult adjusting to London, which became the subject of my grad film.
