My background
Originally from Kilkenny, Ireland, I studied English and Psychology at the National University of Ireland Galway, before completing a Postgraduate Diploma programme at the London School of Journalism.
Upon graduating, I returned to Ireland to hone my content creation skills at Sheology Digital, one of the country’s leading female-focused publishers. From there, I went to Sydney, Australia, to work as a journalist and later editorial director of the popular B2C beauty title, CosBeauty Magazine, and the niche B2B publication, Aesthetic Medical Practitioner.
In January 2019, I landed back in London to work as a senior editor with AnalogFolk, Campaign’s Global Digital Innovation Agency of the Year. There, I developed editorial strategies and content for top brands like BT TV, TikTok for Business, Tommy Jeans, T-Mobile and HSBC, before leaving to pursue my current role at Healios.
