I was working at Cherry Orchard Academy as a coach specializing in junior ages, guiding beginners in their football journey. Collaborating closely with the club director and academy coordinator, I actively contribute to the planning and execution of coaching sessions tailored for young players just starting their football experience.

I have served as an auxiliary coach with the Football Association of Ireland (FAI), overseeing and officiating games organized for children in underprivileged communities within South Dublin area, in compliance with the Garda Siochana.

I was an active player for Bluebell United in the Leinster Senior League. In the 2022/23 season, I played a crucial role in the team's remarkable triumph in the Charlie Cahill Cup, showcasing our collective dedication and skill on the field.
