Expertise

As something of a transport expert, I have a darn good understanding of Irish transport issue, both the good and the bad. I have travelled all over Ireland and I have been in every county at least once. A lifelong resident of Dublin, I am a Dublin Taxi Driver so I know my way around the city very well and all sorts of interesting nuggets. I also write quizzes so I know a bit about everything, so to speak, including some of the quirky stuff! If it's about Dublin, I'll be stuck not to know something about it; pubs, sights, history, stories and more! I am also a DJ with vast amounts of expertise in the industry, I am a quailfied rugby referee and have watched soccer for some 20+ years in Ireland,

Experience in the area

I have been working as a taxi driver for some years now; I am also interested in transport and current affairs and I know something about everything.

Education/Credentials

I have an Irish Leaving Certificate; I also undertook the first year of a H Dip in Radio with Journalism, so it goes without saying that my communication skills are up there.
I am a DJ and have a good base in music. I am a qualified rugby referee.
