Experience
I have worked for environmental groups in Ireland and Europe for the last five years and before that as a journalist and news editor. I worked as Communications Manager with the Green Party, the Irish Environmental Network and the European Environmental Bureau. I have worked on issues such as nature protection, plastic pollution, climate change, and sustainable development both nationally and internationally. I grew up in Swords, in Pinegrove, and have lived in the town for most of my life. I have volunteered for over 10 years in the Brackenstown area with the local scout group, 164th Dublin. I live in Coolquay with my wife, Ciara, and two young children.
