Playing career

She played for Eoghan Ruadh, featuring in her club's Dublin three-in-a-row of 1966-68 and winning an All Ireland Club medal in 1967 and for Dublin in the 1967 and 1968 All Ireland Camogie finals.

Administration

She became Leinster provincial secretary in 1971 and was a candidate for secretary of the Camogie Association in 1975.

Presidency

During her presidency the All-Ireland Minor B Championship was inaugurated and won by Laois, and attendances at the annual All Ireland final started to climb form a level where they had been static for over thirty years.
