She was previously a reporter and presenter for RTÉ, working on both radio and television, with a particular interest in foreign news and international development stories.
She resigned from RTÉ[1] in the wake of the "Mission to Prey" documentary for Prime Time that resulted in a libel payment to Kevin Reynolds.
She has since gone on to make a number of documentaries with Frontline Films in Dublin, including "The (Un)teachables", "Schizophrenia, Voices in My Head", and "I Am Traveller".
During her time in RTÉ, she made a five-part documentary series on the impact of Irish Government aid on developing countries.
Among the stories she covered during her time in RTÉ were the conflict in East Timor, the Asian tsunami and the 2004 presidential election in the United States.
