Everyone has a unique creative voice. Through author visits, writing workshops and development education, my aim is to unlock creative confidence and to build resilience and wellbeing, especially in those who feel overlooked or excluded in any way. See Edges-of-Hope.

I love working with children and adults in both formal education and nonformal groups such as refugees, families in direct provision, youth clubs and children in hospital. I’m open to travelling anywhere in Ireland and overseas; please do get in touch.

I’ve completed the Events for All Training run by Children’s Books Ireland https://childrensbooksireland.ie, which equips facilitators to work with diverse groups of children including those with autism.
