I am currently working as Communications, Fundraising and Advocacy Programme Manager for Educate Together, the representative organisation for Ireland's equality-based schools. I work across a variety of areas: public relations, marketing, advocacy, fundraising and digital engagement with our key audiences. I plan, develop and implement all of the Educate Together's marketing strategies and public relations activities, both external and internal. I oversee the development of Educate Together’s support materials, digital platforms and communications to our community of schools. I am responsible for managing the efforts of the company’s communications team. A graduate of UCD, I hold a BA International in History and Political Science and I have studied international relations at the University of California - Santa Barbara. I completed my MA in Public Affairs and Political Communications at DIT in 2009. I hold diplomas in digital marketing (2013) and desktop publishing (2014). I consider myself highly skilled and very passionate about the work that I do.
