Kia ora and Dia dhuit! I'm a 21-year-old, fourth-year student at Canterbury University, studying a Bachelor of Speech and Language Therapy. I have recently completed a placement at a special needs school for children with autism. I hope to work in the healthcare or disability sector, helping children to communicate effectively.
I love New Zealand, where I was born and raised by my Irish father and Kiwi mother. I currently live in Christchurch with seven of my best friends. I cherish a typical Kiwi lifestyle, enjoying beach trips, exploring the cities, and taking advantage of the outdoors, especially snowboarding and road-tripping with friends. I dream of world travel, as there is so much to explore and learn.
Irish dancing has been my passion since I started at age five. I am a six-time NZ National Champion and attended the Dublin World Irish Dancing Championships as the Traditional Irish Dancing Association (TIDA) Scholarship recipient. My lifelong goal is to perform with a show and tour worldwide.
I draw inspiration from my family and friends who support and cheer me on in everything I do! I am passionate about advocating for people's rights and aim to make a positive mark on people's lives.
