I am a primary teacher working in schools for the past nineteen years. I am a passionate lifelong learner and am currently completing a Masters in Educational Leadership through Waterford Institute of Technology. I have just graduated with a degree in psychology from the Open University. I have completed many different courses in the area of educating students with Additional Needs and I have significant and varied experience in the area also and these include working in SET, Special class teaching and as a SENCO. I have worked with many different schools nationwide planning different aspects of the Continuum of Support with them and planning provision in their school for students with additional needs. I believe wholeheartedly in the difference we can make in the lives of people with many additional needs through our understanding and our knowledge. I worked with the Dyslexia Association of Ireland for eight years, as a tutor on the SNA course with UCD, and as a lecturer with Hibernia College on the Inclusion and Diversity module with the PME students.  I was awarded the IATSE Testimonial and Award for excellence in Support Teaching in 2017 when studying in University College Dublin and the Louise Madigan Bursary Award for research in education in 2021.
