Guest Speaker at the Open University degree ceremony at Croke Park

I was privileged to be invited back to The Open University as guest speaker at The Open University in Ireland degree ceremony at Croke Park.

7 years ago, the OU gave me more than a degree, it gave me belief. I never thought I’d have a second chance at education, but the OU made it possible. Witnessing the sheer joy and pride of these graduates, and getting to celebrate their success with them, was incredibly emotional. I'm reminded how education can truly change lives.

Thank you John D'Arcy OBE FIOD FRSA for asking me to be part of the special day, and for your continuous support of my own academic journey. Huge congratulations to all.
