Experience
Originally from County Galway, I’ve lived in Naas more than 15 years. As a dad to three kids I’m no stranger to the challenges of raising young children. I’m a financial planner by trade and I am putting the skills I’ve developed over 13 years in business to work for the benefit of Naas. I am dogged in my attitude to cutting through bureaucracy to make Naas a better and more sustainable place in which to live at any age.
I set up my business in 2010 and working in and for Naas has been important to me since moving here. I’ve been active in business, residents’, and community groups for many years; for example, I was Company Secretary and Director of Landen Park Owners Management Company while I lived there.
