About
I completed my PhD, ‘On the Origins and Development of Crom Dubh’, under the supervision of Dr. Elva Johnston in University College Dublin in 2017 and am currently working at UCD as an occasional lecturer. My research is focused on the Christian treatment of non-Christian aspects of early Irish society and the developing legend of Saint Patrick. Education
Apart from my PhD, I hold a MA in Early Irish History (UCD, 2011), a BA in European History (University of Maryland, 2010), and a BS in cultural geography (including GIS training, University of Maryland, 2010). Work Shared in CORE
