To be able to work collaboratively and grow artistically with such an amazing group of people. My peers are my greatest inspirations. Specifically, working on Naked Cinema with Fiona and Blake was an immensely rewarding experience.

I plan to continue performing on screen and on stage as much as possible, while writing and directing my own scripts. I plan on eventually starting a TV production company with my business partner Ruairi.

What do you consider your greatest achievement?

All the times I was there for people when they needed me, as a son, a student, an artist and a friend.

Musical ability, to the point where I can sit down with an instrument and come up with something interesting on the spot.

What is your guilty pleasure?

Eating way too much sushi.

If you could have dinner with someone fictional/real, who would it be?

My future wife. Saves me the trouble of finding her.

If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be?

A bird of some sort. I would love to be able to fly without having to go through security.
