My name is Tara Rogers, and I am 22 years old, from Knockbride, a small rural area outside Bailieborough.
I finished my three-year Music and Geography Degree at Dublin City University, and I'm hoping to start a Master's Degree in Primary Education in September after sitting my Irish Leaving Certificate.
After finishing my degree, I took a year off to study Irish and was fortunate to be hired as a substitute teacher at Drumbarragh National School for the year.
Sport has always been a big part of my life for anyone who knows me. I've been a member of my local ladies' team since I was five years old and have always enjoyed playing and watching games.
Coming from a large family and a small town, being the Cavan Rose means a lot to me because I am making them all proud, and it is an honour to get this far. I am very excited to bring my family and friends to Tralee, as well as the experiences that await us.
