Dia duit, my name is Katelyn, I’m 20 and I hail from the small village of Ballyouskill, which sits on the Laois and Kilkenny border. I grew up on a dairy farm, where my love for the outdoors has blossomed from. I am currently in my 3rd phase of an electrical apprenticeship with Alpha Drives Ltd. and I hope to do an engineering degree in the future. I‘m an outgoing and adventurous individual who truly thrives on socialising and meeting new people. I have developed a strong love for travelling in recent years, and love learning about different cultures. I have won two county finals while playing camogie with my local club, and love going set dancing and jiving with my family and friends. I am chairperson of the North Kilkenny Macra club which has allowed me to meet so many new people and form connections all over Ireland. I am so honoured to partake in the amazing Rose of Tralee International Festival 2025 and meet my fellow Rose sisters.
