I have had a passion for the outdoors as long as I can remember. My desire to develop my passion into a career started in 2010, when I started training as an instructor.
While climbing has brought me to many locations, including Wales, Scotland, France, Thailand, Tanzania and the USA. It is in Ireland where I’ve enjoyed my favourite days out on rock and hill.
From hiking in Connemara to scrambling up Howling Ridge, trad climbing at Ailladie or bouldering in Doolin, I find Ireland has everything to offer the hill walker and climber.

I am passionate about outdoor instruction and passing on what I have learned to other people.
I want to inspire people to realise their own dreams in the outdoors, to become self sufficient, so that they can enjoy the freedom of the outdoors as much as I do.
