He uses LEGO as a form of mindfulness to help with his mental health, designing and building eye-catching models that demonstrate his creativity and the versatility of this much-loved brick. His creations are freestyle, born from his imagination. While he builds most installations himself, he is often helped in his projects by his son, Sam, his wife, Michelle, and his friends at Brick Shows Ireland.
