How do you celebrate your Irishness? One of my favorite ways to celebrate the Irish culture is by hosting the South Buffalo Irish Festival with my friends in South Buffalo Roots. It is a great way to celebrate our community with Irish music and dancing.
Name a hero you admire and why? Susan B. Anthony is considered a great hero to me because of her tireless advocacy for women's rights. She dedicated her life to fighting for women's right to vote and working to change laws that discriminated against women. Her efforts, along with others, ultimately led to women possessing the right to vote.
Something people would be surprised to know about me... Most people are shocked when I tell them I am in an all-women’s fantasy football league. The league is over a decade old and is named after one of my heroes! We are the Susan B Anthony Memorial Fantasy Football League. The name usually gets quite a laugh from others!
Biography: I'm fortunate to be surrounded by the best family and friends a person could ask for. The support I receive from my husband, Matt, daughter, Bridgit, family and friends allow me the privilege of laughing every day!
