About Catherine
Catherine’s education and life experiences are steeped in Irish food culture, history and the arts. She is the first of six people to graduate in six hundred years from the island with a degree in Law and the Irish (Gaelic) language. While working in that field, she translated the Children’s Act into the Irish language and was acknowledged in a book on the Irish language version of the constitution. She is a social entrepreneur having founded a dance organisation at university level that is now in its 23rd year. It has given thousands of people the opportunity to take up or to continue dancing at a high level. She credits her close knit mother’s family and her ancestors from the Tipperary mountains for her love of Irish mythology, dance, nature and storytelling. Since finishing a Masters in Well-being & Coaching Psychology she has worked in New York. After returning to Ireland, she has been acknowledged in two more books and is a guest lecturer on the Tour Guide Training Course In Dublin. Her tour with you will reveal what lies in the hearts and minds of the Irish people and put you on the pathway in to this enthralling culture.
