Academic
I hold a PhD in Economic History from University College Cork, Ireland on the development of Irish banking and currency policy 1922-1943. My supervisor was Dr. Andy Bielenberg and my extern was Professor Brian Girvin (Glasgow). I was an Irish Research Council funded Postgraduate Scholar for the entirety of my research.
Between 2018-20 I was an Irish Research Council Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the School of Business, Trinity College Dublin working primarily with Professor Frank Barry.
I publish irregularly due to other commitments. But currently working on a reassessment of Irish commercial banking performance in the 1930s.
