We don't inherit the earth, we borrow it from our children.
My vision for Killiney-Shankill
As your councillor for Killiney-Shankill, I will work to provide safe and pleasant transport options for all. For me, the Green commitment to walking and cycling is not just a matter of saving the planet–it’s vital for women’s equality, children’s health and development, and building affordable housing we love to live in.

Experience
I'm a graduate of Trinity College Dublin and University of California at Davis, where I was awarded the Dean's Prize for Artwork and Performance. I've worked with a diverse portfolio of companies as a marketing and management consultant, including Quatris Health, the Pacific Crest Trail Association, and Rathbaun Farm.
In 2015, I went back to university to study law at NUI Galway. I've worked in public and commercial law and, as a board member of Frontline Make Change, I helped launch a social enterprise bike shop in Inchicore, Frontline Bikes.
In the past few years I've become a mother, worked in politics, and started my own organisation tackling vacancy and dereliction, D8 Development. I currently work with Green party leader Eamon Ryan in the Department of Transport.
