    JJ graduated from the National Film School of Ireland (IADT) in 2007 and has had a camera in his hand ever since.
    JJ is best known for his work with director Dave Tynan. Together they have created multiple successful films. 'Just Saying' gained instant viral success and became a cultural touchpoint in 2012\. 'Rockmount' which was awarded the Teirnan McBribe accolade at the Galway Film Fleadh, followed quickly by an IFTA in 2015 and "Heartbreak' which invited more viral attention and sparked intense cultural debate around women’s issues in Ireland in 2017\. The film had people all over the country quoting Emmet Kirwan’s indelible rally cry for the nation to “stand in awe of all mná” and the work went on to credit the creative team with their second IFTA award.

    Before returning to Ireland, he made many films for the BBC – including ‘Northern Soul: Keeping the Faith’ about one of the UK’s biggest underground music scenes; a film about the first literary depiction of recreational drug use ‘Confessions of an English Opium Eater’, presented by Dr. John Cooper Clarke; and the climactic episode of the landmark series ‘The Story of Scottish Art’.
