Hi everyone! My name is Ciara, I am 26 years old and originally from Newbridge, County Kildare. I moved to Calgary, Canada when I was 15 and have been here ever since! I transferred to high school here and went on to pursue a career in Medical Esthetics through Delmar College, where I graduated with honours in 2019. Since then, I have gone on to work in some of the top ranked clinics in Calgary, became an educator at the college I graduated from and then went on to being the Admission Advisor and Director for that college. I have won various awards for singing, dancing and acting and also have created programs in which services are offered at no cost to the parents residing at the Ronald McDonald House in Calgary. In my spare time I love singing, painting, baking, and spending time with my daughter, Mia, who is almost 1 year old! I’m so excited for this journey and can’t wait to meet all my fellow roses! Slán!
