Her poetry has been published widely in journals in Ireland, and she has read at Poetry Ireland’s Introductions series, literary festivals and events throughout the country. A practicing counsellor, she facilitates creative and personal development activities with individuals and groups. Her first collection, Shout If You Want Me To Sing, was published in 2004 by Summer Palace Press. This is her second collection.
