About me

There are 55,000 Murphys in Ireland. I’m not just another Murphy. When you have the most common name in Ireland you feel the need to stand out. I have made it my mission in life not to live up to my name. I love to create thoughtful, impactful design. I am a multi-disciplinary designer, if I don’t know how to do something I’ll figure it out!
