About
me.

25 years in Irish advertising.

Creative Director at Ogilvy Dublin, where he has helped lead the agency's creative output since 2018, after six years there as Senior Art Director and earlier years at DDFH&B and McConnell's.

Work that sells.

Ulster Bank's “A Mortgage You Can Live With” grew sales at almost double the market rate, returned €2.46 for every euro in year one, and won two trophies at the 2016 Euro Effies.

Work that gets noticed.

A couple of Cannes nominations for ISPCC and the National Lottery, a plethora of ICAD awards, and Kinsale Shark Gold, Silver and Bronze, plus a seat on juries at The One Show 2022, the Shorty Awards, the ICAD Awards, the Shark Awards and the PHNX Awards.

Beyond the ad break.

For Diageo he spent 18 months taking the Smithwick's Experience from concept to finished building — Lonely Planet's No.4 hottest attraction in the world for 2015.

Brands include

Guinness, Trócaire, Boots, Bord na Móna, SIRO, Ford, UCD, Ulster Bank and the National Lottery.

Not looking. But he might be open to it ;)
