Hello! My name is Siobhan Edwards, and I am extremely honoured to represent the Sunshine State as this year's Queensland Rose.
I am 23 years old and hail from Brisbane and have strong connections to rural Far North Queensland, where my grandparents live.
My Irish heritage has always been integral to my identity; I am a proud fourth-generation Irish Australian, as my great-grandparents were from Co Cork and Co Limerick.
I have recently graduated university, studying Politics and Marketing. I now work in strategy consulting at Deloitte, where I collaborate with local government clients across a range of industries.
I love spending time reading, going on runs with my friends, and enjoying Queensland's beaches.
I have been blessed to be around the Queensland Rose Community my whole life, and I am very proud to be a second-generation Queensland Rose.
This is a journey I have dreamed of my whole life, and I can't wait to meet the rest of the amazing 2025 Roses from around the world and celebrate our shared culture together.
