My name is Molly Ronan, and I am a 27-year-old Florida native, hailing from Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.
As someone who has a keen interest in people and different cultures, I graduated from the University of Florida in 2021 with my Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology.
Being proud of my Irish heritage, I have always celebrated my roots in every way I can. I was a champion Irish dancer and the 2022 senior Mid-Atlantic Fleadh champion on flute, tin whistle, and harp.
I currently work as a first-grade assistant and substitute teacher at St Paul's Catholic School as well as a freelance wedding and event harpist. Music is a big part of my life and I always seek to give back to my community by playing at assisted living facilities, churches, schools, and charity functions.
Having been involved with the Florida Rose Center since 2017 as a Junior Rose, I am honoured to be representing the Sunshine State here in Tralee.
