I attended a workshop run by the site last year. At the event, Maureen Hughes lead me to Louise Kiely where I was cast in ‘Love Rosie’, so a big thank you for that!

Yesterday, I went to my first professional TV audition for a TV3 production ‘Ireland’s Notorious Bank Robberies’. Today I was told I landed the speaking role of ‘Detective’. A sincere thank you for the opportunity I received through the site.
