I love hearing human interest stories and also sharing them across my platforms. Why? Because someone might just click on a story, an interview, or a blog I have shared and it will be exactly what they needed to hear. I share so many different subjects from Alzheimers, writing processes, profiles on companies, travel and hotel reviews, film/book reviews, press releases and so much more.  I  interviewed over 37 people in a variety of industries during the many lockdowns in the pandemic and in 2022 self-published my first book which was a collection of interviews with leaders in business, community & the arts. I have found that ordinary people have extraordinary stories and just need a helping hand to let readers know how they coped with their challenging experiences.

I loved writing pieces for the Dun Laoghaire Gazette and Futura Communications working on their trade publications Menswear and Footwear in Ireland. I also had articles published in the Irish Independent about my mother's Alzheimers, U Mag, Ireland's Own, and numerous online sites.

I achieved a Post Grad in Learning and Teaching for Further Education/Adult Education in 2019 which boosted my career choice and gave me another avenue to explore. I was facilitating a weekly Creative Writing class in my local community pre-pandemic and brought my writing course online to help people stay well, mentally, through writing about how they were feeling about the pandemic, etc.

I am a firm believer as a parent that we can teach our children to think outside the box creatively by expressing themselves through writing, drawing, painting and telling stories vocally or in a creative format.  I hope I have been instrumental in my children's creative abilities by watching me through my work, in particular, working from home during the pandemic.

For my own creativity and well-being, I love to swim in the sea and continue to do it in the winter months, as long as my hands don't get frostbite 🙂 My happy place is by the sea and watching the sunrise with my children.
