Additional Information

As a teenager, I engaged in various social activities such as gymnastics, cheerleading, trampolining and drama; I have always been socially active. These interests gave me multiple opportunities to work on a team and become an assistant coach while still in school, growing my confidence.

Whilst in school, I attended work placement in both the Derry Court House and with the PSNI.

In the Summer of 2020, I was a group leader for the Pathway Program with Queen's University. I had to assist sixth former's on the law program through Microsoft Teams and had the responsibility of marking their work.

Accomplishments

    - In June 2023, I co-created the fundraiser 'Jumping for All Our Jacks', which raised £12,331.70 to be donated to mental health charities in my home town. In October 2024, I assisted in a Bungee Jump fundraiser which raised over £22,000.

    - In September 2022, I created walk-home safe kits for students living in the Holylands area to draw the attention of the Universities to the unsafe environment of their students off campus. I successfully handed out 250 'Angel Kits'.
