What’s been your biggest professional accomplishment so far in your career?

Launching RPM Communication Consulting represents many facets of my personal and professional growth. I believe communication is a critical value for sustained organizational success, and RPM has provided the opportunity to share that with others. We’ve been fortunate to support many organizations in the state and we’re excited for what the future holds.

How are you involved in the community?

As the son of Irish-immigrants that settled in Hartford, I’ve dedicated my time sharing traditions with the next generation of Irish-Americans. I’m involved in the Hartford Gaelic Athletic Association, serving various leadership roles. In 2021, my teammates and I won the Northeast GAA Championship. In 2022, I founded CT’s first Ladies Gaelic Football.
