Question time
Why should someone vote for you (in 140 characters or fewer)?

So I can continue to represent the people and communities of this constituency, to ensure their concerns are heard in Dáil Éireann.

What is your number one priority for your constituency?

Hard to pick just one - I would have to say improving access to Disability Services, and early intervention services for children.

What one thing would you like to do in your first 100 days of the new Dáil if you are elected?

Immediately take down barriers to accessing early intervention services, and raise awareness of the huge costs of self-building houses in rural areas.
