“I’m originally from Dublin, with Kerry and Westmeath roots. I spent most of my childhood exploring the West of Ireland which is where my passion for Tourism stems from. I spent my summers during college Interrailing in Europe, working in Irish Hospitality in Boston and working as an Au Pair in France. More recently, I took some time to explore Southeast Asia and Australia.  Wherever I go, I love meeting new people from different cultures and teaching them about our wonderful country. I am so proud to be a part of the Meet in Ireland team and I am excited to represent Failte Ireland both home and away.”
