    Probably the second Food Festival we did - weather was fab, crowd was huge and there was a fantastic buzz around the whole estate!

    Best piece of advice you’ve received?

    Get to others before they get to you - in other words, try and anticipate the questions others may be asking and answer them before they ask you.

    The view from the farm down across the fields.

    Favourite place you’re visited?

    The Dolomites in Italy.

    What do you like to do in your spare time?

    Hillwalking most weekends somewhere in the Wicklow mountains.

    Have you always worked in governance and finance?

    No, I’ve worked in finance since I left school but only started working in governance when I joined Airfield.

    Favourite animal in Airfield?

    I love the chickens -I’ve four of them at home and they are wonderful- mad but great fun collecting fresh eggs every morning.

    Best thing about your job?

    Finance affects all areas of the organisation so I get to see Airfield from every angle and that’s interesting!
