I've always been the chubby kid during my childhood, and to this day, my love for food remains unwavering. I can eat food and desserts 24/7, and I'd never turn down a delicious meal, no matter my mood or fatigue. It all started when I received my first phone at the age of 18; that's when I began capturing almost every moment of my life. I still have my phone filled with old food pictures dating back to when I was 18.
Fast forward to 2019 when the pandemic struck. That period turned out to be one of the most beautiful chapters of my life as it brought my family closer together. We cooked together, laughed together, played games together, and, most importantly, we weathered the storm of the pandemic as a united front. During this time, I discovered my passion for food blogging and photography, all thanks to my Mom, who encouraged me to start my Instagram page. She made sure I shot at least one video every day.
I'd always been the kid with dreams of moving abroad and becoming independent. But one day, while sitting at home with my family, I impulsively applied for a Digital Marketing program at UCD. To my delight, I received confirmation a few days later, and one of my dreams came true. When I arrived in Dublin in 2020, a lockdown was in place, and I saw it as an opportunity to take my passion seriously.
I delved into my blogs, completed courses, obtained certifications, and built my online presence. Sadly, many of my friends in Dublin didn't support my passion, thinking it was just a waste of time on the phone and social media. Fortunately, I had my family and a few well-wishers who constantly encouraged me to follow my passion. Today, I'm proud that I didn't listen to the crowd, and my dedication to my passion has brought me recognition in life. It has allowed me to form lasting relationships with many Irish brands and businesses and given me the chance to create extraordinary content for my clients. My passion even earned me the "Rising Star of the Year 2023" award, not just in Dublin but in all of Ireland. It's this same passion that I'd love to infuse into your brand if given the opportunity and I definitely would love to work with you.
