Ancient questions. Living canvas.
I'm a folklorist, fantasy author, and visual artist whose research and creative work move between Irish vernacular tradition, medieval law, and the strange beauty of inherited stories. My scholarship focuses on the wise woman (bean feasa), the Schools' Collection of the Irish National Folklore Collection, Early Irish law, and the politics of folk archives in the age of AI. My fiction asks the same questions in a different key. Doctoral study begins September 2027.
