About Me

Thank you for visiting my website!  

I am a writer from Dublin, Ireland, with short stories published by The Ogham Stone, Lunate Fiction, JMWW and Storgy. I won the 2021 Morning Coffee Writing Competition and was runner-up in the Highlands & Islands Short Story Competition in the same year; my stories have been shortlisted for the Aesthetica Creative Writing Prize, the Anthology Magazine Short Story Competition and the Benedict Kiely Short Story Competition among others.​

In 2021 I was awarded a Words Ireland literary mentorship.​

My debut novel, SHOW ME WHERE IT HURTS, was a runner-up in the Irish Writers’ Centre Novel Fair 2023, and will be published by Sceptre in April 2025.​
