Tagasaan kayo?
Galway, on the west coast of Ireland………… wild, wet and wiiiiiiiindy!
Ano ang iyong ginagawa sa iyong buhay ngayon?
I just graduated as a doctor, after 6 years of studying! So I’m currently an intern doctor at home in Co. Sligo, Ireland. Working crazy hours and trying to squeeze in some water time when I can. Sligo is an awesome county, it’s 2 hours from my hometown Galway, it’s also right on the Atlantic coast and gets heaps of swell and wind…… it’s a cold paradise! I’m finishing up internship in July and I plan to take a year off to windsurf and travel …..(and work a bit!), before I start my surgical training back at home in 2013

Ano ang iyong mga paboritong lugar sa layag?
Wow that’s a toughy…… so many. I gotta say Ireland though, it’s home and it is AWESOME! I come from the West Coast which is battered by Atlantic low pressure systems.

My mates and I sail all along the coast, top spots include some epic reefs in Co.Clare, Belmullet and Carrownisky Co.Mayo, Magheroarty Co.Donegal and of course my new hometown Co. Sligo has some complete gems! I’ve been lucky to travel a lot and I’ve sailed places like Ho’okipa and
Margaret River…… but there’s no place like home Sailing with 4 of your best mates, alone in the wild madness that is the Atlantic, bundled up in 5mm wetsuits, booties, hoods….. spectacular backdrops of lush, green hills spotted with sheep, then hit the pub after for some hot soup and cold Guinness…… ahhh there’s really no place like home !!
Who are your inspirations?
My Parents and my siblings, 100%, epic people!…….. they have taught me everything, how to work, how to play, how to set goals and go for them, how to be humble, and most importantly how to live life to its fullest
My grandad who just turned 90 and still plays 18 holes of golf every week and walks 3 miles a day!

Ano ang iyong mga layunin para sa 2012?
Travel, windsurf and compete!! Win the Irish Ladies’ title again, try win some British Wave tour events again, and most importantly kick some ass on the AWT! Trips planned to Wales, Scotland, all over Ireland, Mehiko, The Gorge, the Canaries, Chile and of course Maui………. should probably start doing the lottery more regularly…….. or work non-stop!! And of course be happy, healthy…………… and try stop being such a chatterbox!!

Mga salita ng karunungan?
Believe in yourself, cos if you don’t, no-one else will. But never take yourself too seriously, cos if you do, no-one else will.Always measure a person’s character on how he treats those who have nothing to offer him
HAVE FUN!!!!…..

Motto
Don’t fear the chat!
