I have had articles published in History Ireland, the Irish News, Saothar: Journal of the Irish Labour History Society and Ireland’s Eye. I am a regular contributor to Ireland's Own magazine. I have also written articles for the Irish Story website. In addition, I have recently assisted with research for various upcoming academic books.
