Rose of Tralee 2025 - Offaly

Nicole Heffernan

Hi, I'm Nicole, I'm 24 and living in Killeigh, a small village just outside of Tullamore.

I'm a teacher by profession, continuing with a Master's in the University of Limerick this coming September, which I'm extremely excited about. Teaching has taught me the true meaning of the saying: "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life".

Sport has always been a huge part of my life. I play both camogie and football with my local clubs. I love the community spirit, laughter, determination, and craic that come with being part of both teams. Most of these girls are the equivalent to family, and I would be truly lost without them.

I come from a close and loving family who have always supported my decisions, encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone, and guided me over every hurdle I've faced. A favourite trip and recent highlight of mine was travelling through Asia during the Summer of 2024.

I'm beyond excited and grateful for what the future holds throughout my Rose journey.
