Time in Roscami politics
First Jacobs and Irwin presidencies
He was one of the original members of the government before the 17thMayCoup, serving as the Chief Adviser. His time was that of a background figure, not being in the public eye too much.
During the presidency of James Irwin, he didn’t work in the government as much as he once did, though after the collapse of James Irwin and the return of Thomas Jacobs to the presidency, he became active again.
Second Jacobs presidency
During the early stages of the Second Jacobs Presidency, he became the first Home Secretary and the first Governor of the Aran Islands, both on 22 July 2021.
Personal life
He was born in Dublin City, County Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland. He grew up in Dublin, moving to County Galway in his early adulthood.
He is by profession a teacher, and was head of a school outside Galway City until 2020, then he became an SNA at the same school as Thomas Jacobs. That’s how the two became friends.
He is only one of three people to invested into the Order of the Hero of Roscamistan, the others being James Irwin and Thomas Jacobs on 20 February 2022.
He is married with one child, a daughter.
