I currently serve as the Secretary for Aisteach, a Queer Housing Co-operative with the mission to provide housing and housing support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals through mutual aid based on cooperative principles.
Through these diverse experiences, I have honed skills in event planning and execution, design and delivery of training, volunteer recruitment, and health promotion, among other key skills that contribute to my current work.
On a personal level, I place great value on connecting with others and believe that surrounding oneself with those on a similar journey is one of the best ways to grow and develop in life. I often contemplate an expression that is sometimes viewed quite negatively - "Memento Mori" - remember you must die. I firmly believe that only through acknowledging the inevitability of death can we truly make the most of our brief time on Earth, striving to be the best version of ourselves as we navigate this life.
