After completing his Leaving Certificate in 1978 in CBS Kells he went on to study Construction Studies in the Regional Technical College, Dundalk. After qualifying he moved to Dublin to work for a number of architectural firms. While working in Dublin he took up woodwork as a hobby. A passion soon developed for working with wood and a real talent was apparent.
