Following his degree, he spent 20 years as a sculpture conservator, firstly in London then in Ireland, having moved to Dublin in 1994. Stone became his master at this time and he began to carve pieces to commission.

In 2017 he exhibited at the RHA Annual Show in Dublin as an invited artist and the following year was shortlisted for the RHA/Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland's Art Award.

In January 2021 he won a commission from the RCSI to produce ten versions of the Cameron Centenary Award for services to public health.
