I am a poet and creative projects facilitator living in the foothills of Sliabh na mBan in County Tipperary. Inspired by human interactions and the natural world around me, I enjoy combining my love of writing and poetry with my work.

​

I am the current Poet in Residence for the South Tipperary Arts Centre, Clonmel where I facilitate 'Word Sparks', a series of free-flow writing sessions designed to engage writers with varied and thought-provoking works of art to spark writing ideas.

 

In 2024, I completed a writing residency at Greywood Arts, Killeagh, Co Cork recently as well as the Writing Poetry online course with the Dept for Continuing Education, University of Oxford. I am looking forward to pursuing further studies in the near future.​ 

​

I have collaborated creatively with the Clonmel Junction Arts Festival, the Tudor Artisan Hub, Clonmel Applefest,  South Tipperary Action Network and Suaimhneas sna Coillte as well as the Tipperary Bealtaine Festival delivering a range of projects including writing workshops, poetry galleries / trails, spoken word events and the curation of poetry booklets.

 

​My debut poetry collection 'a life to be lived' was published in 2023.
