I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland but moved to America with my parents at the age of five. My parents owned two Irish restaurants; one in Albany, New York & one on Cape Cod. I like to read, laugh, meet new people as well as history, music & arts & crafts. I host an Irish radio program with my mom called "Proud to be Irish". I am the creator of Cead Mile Failte , a website dedicated to my father's life & Irish music. I'm cheerfully owned by a 11 year old cat named Smokey.
