Carty is the younger brother of senior out-half Jack and was a member of the Irish under 20 World Cup squad in 2017.

The disruptions to overseas travel created by the COVID-19 pandemic forced the 23-year-old to cancel a 2020 playing stint with Sydney club Gordon but he now signs a two-year deal with the US outfit.
