Luke O’Keeffe from Mooncoin won gold in the ‘Olympics of Skills’ at the recent Worldskills competition.
He’s no stranger to success having won the Futureskills contest in 2019 while he was named Irish national champion last year.
Luke who graduated in 2020 is now studying for his masters in Construction Project Management at SETU.
He’s told KCLR he missed out on a chance to go to Shanghai for the finals but says he enjoyed travelling to Bordeaux instead.
