Dia dhuit! My name is Soracha, I'm 25 years old, and I'm honoured to be representing the US capital as the 2025 Washington DC Rose.
I was born in Dublin and have had the joy of calling both Ireland and Washington DC home throughout my life. My wonderful parents are originally from Claremorris, Co Mayo, which holds a special place in my heart. I spent part of my childhood there and developed a lifelong love for Mayo GAA - Up Mayo!
I currently work as a Junior Professional Associate at the World Bank Group, the world's largest development organisation. It's incredibly rewarding to contribute to the mission of ending poverty and creating a more sustainable planet.
I earned my BA from University College Dublin in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics. This fall, I'll be starting a Master's programme at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business - an exciting new chapter!
Outside of work, I love practising yoga, going for runs, baking, and of course, supporting Mayo GAA.
Representing DC as the 2025 Rose is truly a dream come true.
