Historical Research & Consulting Services
Ireland and UK based historical media expert and researcher
About Me
I’m a specialist History TV and podcast producer/researcher, Irish genealogy specialist, and Irish History PhD candidate dedicated to uncovering and sharing compelling stories from the past. Over the past decade, I’ve worked on projects for the BBC, RTE, Channel 5, National Geographic Channel, Netflix, Apple TV+ and countless other global broadcasters and streamers. My credits include the BAFTA-winning BBC genealogy series 'Who Do You Think You Are?' where I worked with Dame Judi Dench, Sir Ian McKellen, and Cheryl Cole. Beyond television, I run an Irish genealogy company helping the Irish diaspora worldwide trace their Irish family history, serve as a fact-checker on leading history podcasts, and have consulted on research projects for the UNHCR archives in Geneva as well as other major international productions.
I split my time between my home in Ireland and my adopted home in South London, and am available for work worldwide.
