Personal Statment On Architecture : Our cities now are digital nebulae, with connections far beyond the comprehension of line and card. We must reimagine our craft as a form of ‘script-making’, not only in the digital sense but in the narrative sense also, for it is through the stories of the city that we will hold onto its human aspects. On Music : Music is the art to which all others aspire. Education : M.Arch - 2012 Autumn 2006 - Autumn 2012 Cork Institute of Architectural Education (UCC) Passed with Distinction | Class rank 1 High School Leaving Cert Christian Brothers College Cork 505 points Experience : DATUM Architecture Studio (YAYA finalist 2016) February 2009 - Present Founder and Lead Design-Researcher DATUM is an architectural investigations unit established by graduates and academics from CCAE, Cork Centre for Architectural Education.
