This much I know: Róisín O’Hara, Broadcaster

I’m very hard on myself. I question my decisions time and time again.

I suppose I’ve always been a ‘performer’. My father is a wonderful traditional Irish musician and singer and I remember, as a child, eagerly awaiting my turn to get on the stage during one of his gigs to sing or do a spot of Irish dancing.

My dad always encouraged us to discuss current affairs and politics in the house. In school, I was hugely involved in debating and drama. Studying the BA Degree in Journalism in DCU was an obvious choice for me, though it never really dawned on me at that stage that I would end up in broadcasting per se.
