I am a bilingual journalist and copywriter for regional, Irish, and international publications and online media. For the past twenty years and counting, I’ve delivered fresh, informative, and engaging feature articles, opinion pieces, personal columns, and copy for commercial and advertorial purposes to a wide range of clients. I write in English and in Irish across topics that include health and wellbeing; food, nutrition, and how we eat now; social and women’s issues; parenting and relationships; and the changing face of Irish society and the Irish language.
