I have been a musician since I started playing fiddle aged seven. I have always been fascinated by the workings and construction of violins. In 2012, through Siobhan Armstrong, I was introduced to the world of the Clairseach - Gaelic Wire Strung Harps.

My dad and I finished our first harp, based on the harp at Trinity University in summer 2023 and since then I have continued to study harp making.

I have spent the past five years working in the sales, servicing, restoration and making of violins, violas and cellos in the USA. I have recently relocated back to Ireland and I am focusing on the playing, making and research of wire strung harps.
