I started Dancing at the age 3. I studied many different styles including Ballet , Modern , Lyrical , Irish Dancing , Contemporary, Hip Hop and freestyle also as a young child I started gymnastics and had a love for it.

  As I got older I decided i wanted to teach dance, I was accepted to CSN where I  was student for two years, earning my diploma in Dance, under the direction of Jane Kellaghen. Here I studied the following subjects ISTD modern ,Tap ,commercial, jazz, classical ballet and drama.

During my 14 years in freestyle under the A.I.D.F I traveled around Ireland , The U.K. And also went to Spain competing. I placed in a lot of championships around these countries. 

I have danced in some amazing venues in Ireland and the UK over the years Including Doing Multiple Shows in the Firkin Crane Cork, Everyman Palace, Opera house but one that was a highlight for me was performing in the famous Blackpool Tower were the Strictly Come Dancing final is held every year.

I currently hold a Diploma in Dance from my 2 years studying dance in Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa , I am a Certified teacher with Acrobatic arts, I hold a qualification with Gymnastics Ireland, I am qualified coach with gymnastics Ireland , I hold a modern Certificate From the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance (ISTD) And I  am certified in strength and flexibility with Alixa Flexibility. I am currently still furthering my dance education to get the highest standard possible.
 

I started Dance at 5 years old in the discipline of Hip Hop and later fell into other Dance Disciplines. I studied Hip Hop, Gymnastics, Freestyle and Cheerleading. 

As a competitive dancer I travelled all around Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales and Spain to compete. I also took part in a televised deaf talent show progamme for RTE at age 7 with Hip Hop routine and went on to win the talent show.

I started my teaching journey in 2017 as a volunteer class assistant whilst working to obtain my teaching qualifications.

My qualifications include:
- Gymnastics Ireland qualified coach
- Acrobatic Arts Level 1 & 2 qualified teacher
- Alixa Flexibility qualified in Strength and Flexibility 
Im currently still furthering my education to get the highest standards possible for my students to benefit from.

As a deaf person my biggest goal as a teacher will be to make class as accessible as I can. As a student I had to learn to adapt and overcome so as a teacher I feel its important to help students with similar needs to have the tools and help they require.
