Early life

Born in Ballinasloe and raised in nearby Aughrim, Finn attended the Cistercian College boarding school in Roscrea, and captained the school's rugby team. He is also a student of NUI Galway.

Connacht

Finn became part of the academy of his native provincial team Connacht Rugby in 2011. He was part of Connacht's U20 side that won the 2011 Inter Provincial title, scoring a match-winning try against Leinster U20s in Donnybrook. During his time in the academy, Finn played for the province's second tier side, the Connacht Eagles in the British and Irish Cup.

In April 2014, Finn signed a one-year professional contract with the province. The deal saw him promoted to the senior squad ahead of the 2014–15 season, and runs until the end of that year. Finn was promoted alongside fellow academy players Finlay Bealham and Darragh Leader, both of whom had previously been capped for the province at senior level.

International

Finn has represented Ireland internationally at under-age level. He played for the Ireland Under-20s in both the 2012 Under 20 Six Nations and 2012 IRB Junior World Championship.

State Street

Finn now works in the custody department in State Street where him and fellow colleague Diarmuid O'Regan are regarded as the most diligent workers in the department.
