Hello!
I am an independent art historian who holds a Master of Arts from the Courtauld Insititute in London specialising in the history of art and architecture with extensive experience in art-historical writing. My field of interest is specifically focused on critical issues in contemporary art, gender studies as well as a firm knowledge of the history of Western art. I have previous experience writing for journals, exhibition reviews, newspaper articles, artist interviews and catalogue entries. I have been previously employed as a professional copyeditor and proofreader in the arts and tertiary education.
I hope to hear from you soon!

Experienced Voice Artist, Historian & Documentary Writer, Translator
Waterford, Ireland

I am a versatile and experienced historian, cultural heritage specialist, published author, linguist, and voice artist with over 30 years of experience in historical research, content writing, and public engagement whose main area is historical revisionism and public history. I also work in wellness, spirituality and psychospiritual counselling, while providing coaching/mentorship through ancestral practices, mythopoetics and the land, as well as anthropology and depth/archetypal psychology. With a Master’s in Public History and Cultural Heritage from the University of Limerick (Hons), I am passionate about uncovering lost wisdom from the past to inspire modern audiences. My work encompasses historical research and revisionism, cultural heritage documentation, and archaeological and anthropological contextual analysis, allowing me to reconstruct nuanced narratives and bring forgotten histories to life. I also specialise in family history and genealogy research, tracing ancestral lineages with scholarly precision, and in antiques and provenance evaluation, offering detailed analysis of historical objects within their cultural and temporal contexts.
In October 2025, I launched Ireland's first-ever Templar public history initiative, the Waterford Templar Historical Day, which brought together scholars, enthusiasts, and the local community to remember and revive the rich history and legacy of the Knights Templar in Ireland.
As a seasoned lecturer, I have delivered talks on topics ranging from medieval spirituality to esoteric Freemasonry and historical symbolism, including guest lectures for academic institutions such as Concordia University and The College of Psychic Studies (where I trained in spiritual and esoteric topics for over a decade), as well as international conferences like the Ancestral Pathways Conference in 2024. I have also presented at regional libraries, local venues, and global podcasts. My expertise in cultural heritage, mythopoetics, and sacred geography is complemented by my skills in content writing, podcast hosting, and professional voiceover work, making me a dynamic communicator and storyteller.
My work is driven by a deep commitment to preserving and sharing history, creating engaging narratives, and inspiring audiences through research, lectures, consultancy, and creative projects that span both academic and public platforms.
