Environmental Protection Agency

I’m delighted to be joining the 30 Under 30 programme. I’m passionate about protecting our planet and reducing waste, you’ll often find me searching charity shops for items in need of a second home. I currently work as an Environmental Officer with the Environmental Protection Agency, supporting environmental regulation in Ireland. I have an academic background in Geography and Geoscience from Trinity College Dublin, and Postgraduate degree in Sustainability from University College Cork. Through this programme, I hope to strengthen my impact and help preserve a beautiful, healthy Ireland in to future.
