I have recently completed a Graduate Certificate in Experimental Archaeology and Material Culture at University College Dublin. My background is quite varied and goes from I.T. through to Graphics Arts and onto Archaeology.

Since 2020 I have been pursuing my lifetime interests in Archaeology. For the Graduate Certificate my project was the creation of replicas of the Burton Agnes, Folkton and Lavant Neolithic Chalk Drums and looking into the theory that they may have been skeuomorphs of measuring devices used as aids in the construction of places like Stonehenge. I also discussed other possibilities for their use in that project.

I am keenly interested in and currently researching the life style of people during the Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze, Iron and Saxon eras and how their habitation structures affected their lives.
