I am an Ulster and World Champion Irish Dancer, a sport that I have been dedicated to since the age of 3. Since ending my competitive dancing career at 18 to pursue a degree in Biochemistry I have volunteered at my life long dance academy MCMCA where I share my knowledge and love for Irish Dance with dancers of all levels and abilities. I am currently training towards becoming an Irish Dance teacher which will allow me to open my own dance academy in the upcoming years.
