Vote No.1 for me to represent you in Seanad Éireann. I will be a strong voice for climate action, innovation and inclusion.
I graduated with a degree in Computer Science from Trinity College Dublin in 1993. My time in Trinity opened my mind and my love of nature led me to be elected as a County Councillor, a TD and become Minister of State for Environment. Now I want to represent you in Seanad Éireann as a strong voice for climate action, innovation and inclusion.
