ORIGINALLY from Annaghmore, just outside Tullamore in Co Offaly, I now reside in Garristown, north County Dublin, with my husband Gary and our children, Michael and Grace.

My passion for breeding originates from my upbringing on a suckler farm, where we always had ponies, giving me an early introduction to breeding and selling. Although I didn’t compete extensively, we owned some exceptional ponies, including the 138cm stallion Annaghmore Boomerang. Regrettably, I don’t currently have a mare by Boomerang, but I hope to acquire one in the future for our children.
