I am a theatre maker, sound designer and composer based in Dublin.
I am interested in the overlaps between theatre, music, sound, and participation. I am excited by work which makes new use of music and sound. I am passionate about: telling stories in sound, using technologies in live performance, blending musical and theatrical forms, including communities as part of and alongside my work, and developing innovative sound design and composition for theatre.
My current work is concerned with legacy and heritage, as well as human interaction with technology. I work with silliness, irreverence, the strange, and the surprising.
I have been working in the fields of participation and community engagement in my home community in Tallaght since 2016, and I aim to bring the practices that were taught to me in these spaces into all of my work, as an individual practitioner and as part of a number of collectives.
My recent solo work includes The King of All Birds at Dublin Fringe 2023, winner of the George Fitzmaurice Award and Listowel residency at the Fringe Awards. Currently, I am developing BODY SCORE (working title), a project using music and motion sensors. I hold a BA (First Class Honours) in Drama Studies and Music, with a specialism in advanced devising.
In my work as a composer and sound designer, my recent work includes ‘An Ideal Husband’ (Gate Theatre), ‘Do You Come From Gomorrah?’ (Abbey Theatre), ‘Uncle Vanya’ (Cathal Cleary Theatre Company/Once Off Productions) ‘Three Sisters’, ‘A Misanthrope’ (Sugarglass Theatre/Once Off Productions). I was the Druid Theatre Marie Mullen bursary recipient for 2024.
