My name is Amy, and I am 27 years old. I am from Donegal but have been living in the vibrant heart of London for the last number of years. I am privileged to be representing the Irish community in London as the 2023 London Rose.
My parents live in Donegal and my family are living in Derry, Meath, Kildare, Sligo, and Dublin. They are all excited about attending the Rose of Tralee International Festival!
I graduated from the Royal Irish Academy of Music (RIAM) and the Royal College of Music London in 2020 with a Distinction Masters in Music in Jazz and Classical Flute. I am a product of Music Generation and the local and National Youth Orchestras.
I am passionate about music. I teach music at the Westminster Performing Arts School based at St Andrew's Youth Club in Westminster, which I support.
I am developing my career as a solo performer and collaborator. I have played at the Blackwater Valley Opera Festival, Waterford and in venues in Ireland and around the world. I recently released my debut CD, Flute-Chapters.
I am looking forward to Tralee, making wonderful memories, and meeting truly inspirational women!
