Occupation: Teacher
Age: 22
"My name is Lorna Mallick, and I am honoured to be chosen as this year's Wicklow Rose. I am living in a small village in Co Wicklow called Tinahely, where I was born and raised.
"I studied Gaeilge and geography as my undergraduate degree in St Patrick's College in Drumcondra. I then went on to follow my dream career and have just completed the Professional Master's of Education with Hibernia College to qualify as a primary school teacher. I have just been offered my first full-time job for September.
"My hobbies include playing the piano, GAA, working with children and travelling. I've travelled to many different places around the world, but the highlight was travelling to Uganda in 2015 to work as a primary school teacher, and a short road trip around America last summer.
"I hope to do my town and the Garden County proud as an ambassador for the exciting journey to Tralee."
