I’m an award winning print and textile designer with a passion for children’s illustration, currently based in Brooklyn, NY, but hailing from Dublin, Ireland.
I have over twelve years print, textile and fashion design experience, working with some of the world’s leading brands, including as a Senior Designer with Ralph Lauren and Egg New York, and on projects for Tanya Taylor, Ryan Roche, Audra and Felder Felder, among many others. In my native Ireland I worked for iconic brands and designers including Avoca Handweavers, Caroline Kilkenny and Liz Quin. I've also worked on costumes for the BBC series The Tudors and hit Broadway show, Riverdance. My passion is to create and design new prints for homewares and children’s and women’s fashion.
I’m currently working on my first children’s book about a squirrel named Sammy. He is forced to abandon his family home in an oak tree in Fort Greene Park, which is suddenly uprooted. He decides to make his way to the safety of Prospect Park but encounters many unforeseen obstacles along the way.
