Hi Niamh!

 
Describe in three words the kind of work you do every day at Metis Ireland.
 
Interesting, challenging and fulfilling!

What’s been your proudest moment at Metis Ireland to date?

It has to be passing my first exam in the QFA exams.

Tell us the quote or phrase that goes through life with you.
 

It’s really “sh*t happens” but the clean version is “Things may be hard, but there’s always someone worse off”.

Here’s the million dollar question: what’s in your Metis LifePlan?
 
Provide a comfortable life for us and a good start for our daughter.

Where is the most interesting place you’ve been?
 

Coober Pedy, South Australia. It’s a little desert town in the centre of Australia where most of the buildings are built underground due to the heat. It can be 40+ degrees outside yet lovely and cool inside.

Who is your hero and why?
 

I don’t really have a specific hero, more of a concept of what a hero is. To me a hero is someone that has the odds stacked against them but comes out the other side relatively unscathed.

If you could give your younger self one piece of advice what would it be?

Don’t spend so much on useless things!
