Creativity and community came together at the UCD Alumni Vancouver Chapter's Monotype Art Print Workshop on Granville Island. 🎨

It was wonderful to see local alumni from University College Dublin come together for an afternoon of art, conversation, and new experiences. The artwork created throughout the workshop was incredible, and the social gathering afterwards made the day even more special. More opportunities to connect with the Vancouver UCD Alumni community are on the way!

From studying sociology, history and criminology at University College Dublin to representing Ireland on some of rugby's biggest stages, Eve's interview offers a thoughtful insight into the balance between elite sport, academic curiosity and life beyond rugby.
