Early life

Political career

He was a member of South Dublin County Council for the PalmerstownFonthill area from 2019 to 2024. He ran at the 2019 Dublin Mid-West by-election, caused by the departure of Fine Gael's Frances Fitzgerald to the European Parliament, in which Sinn Féin's Mark Ward won the seat.
