The Manikins: a work in progress, his interactive drama for two performers and a single audience member, was hailed as a "masterpiece" by Broadway World and “the best immersive show of 2024” by Immersive Rumours. It was one of The Stage's
top 50 shows of 2023, best in fest at the 2024 Gothenburg Fringe Festival, and was long-listed for the 2026 Annwn Prize

Other recent credits include translating, directing, and performing in a site-specific Hedda Gabler (writer, director, actor)
 and devising and performing in an interactive performance set at a job interview, both with Deadweight, as well as performing in Ritual, Witness Immersive's 8-hour adaptation of The Furies.

His research was selected for presentation at the 2020 Johns Hopkins Undergraduate Research Symposium, the 2022 International Brecht Society symposium, and the 2024 Performance Studies International conference. In 2025 he gave talks on his working method at the Next Stage Immersive Summit in LA and the Immersive Experience Network Summit in London.

He has taught interactive performance to secondary school students, university students, and to masters students at East 15 and at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, from which he received an MFA in advanced theatre practice. ​He also holds a BA in theatre arts from the University of Puget Sound and an intensive certificate from the Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin.
