She brings with her a wealth of experience and business expertise having served as a member of many Boards, contributing to all aspects of business, but in particular, acting as a trusted legal advisor and a guardian of good governance. Importantly, she brings aviation industry expertise, through her previous board role with Aer Lingus and I have no doubt she will be a great asset to the board at an exciting time, as we look to continue to deliver on the airport’s role as a key economic driver for the West and North West of Ireland’
