This is my first position!

​

​Forever proud to be a first generation Irish-American!  I have been going “home” to Ireland since I was 9 months old - with family all over the east coast of Ireland from Dundalk to Cork and now Tipperary thanks to my hubby of 26+ years!   Ensuring our children know their culture and love it as we do was always important to us!

I attended by first WOIH meeting in May of 2022. By the next year I was co-chairing the Spring fundraiser. It's great to be around a group that loves to celebrate their Irish heritage and these always know how to have a good time!
