Two years ago I moved back from London where I worked as a Senior Personal Trainer at Matt Roberts Personal Training, one of London’s leading Personal Training studios. There I trained on average 7 clients a day, managing fitness programmes for a wide range of clients.  This has provided me with extensive experience in a variety of areas including general fitness, weight management, sport specific training, and pre and post-natal exercise.

I have played sport from an early age, representing Ireland in Squash at all age levels and representing Connaught in both tennis and hockey. I also love to hike and cycle in the outdoors and I have participated in many events including the 3 Peaks Adventure Challenge on Achill Island, trekking in the Annapurna range in the Himalayas, the London to Brighton Bike Ride 2006, the Streets of Galway 8K race 2007 & 2008, Dublin Marathon 2007, Connemara Half-Marathon 2009 and have completed various Sprint and Olympic triathlons during 2008 and 2009.

In London, I was employed by Roche Pharmaceuticals to give seminars to GPs and Nurses to assist them in giving effective and appropriate active living advice to their patients. I also appeared on Channel 5 demonstrating various workouts that can be done at home and in the gym covering a range of exercise goals.
I was the Coaching and Development Officer for Irish Squash and managed the U19 Irish Girls team at the World Championships in Egypt.
