Eoin joined us as a youth worker with the Solas@School team in January 2025. Previously Eoin worked in day services for people with intellectual disabilities, as an outreach worker with GOSHH, and as a special education teacher at a school in Dublin 8 which helped him realise his passion for working with Young People in an educational setting. In his own words:

“Working with people every day is something I need to be able to get up in the morning! It’s a privilege to be a part of young people’s journeys, to encourage them and hopefully build their self-worth. The honesty young people bring to a space is very refreshing. I love working in Solas@School because of the laughter and fun the young people bring, no one day is the same as the next.”

Originally from Maynooth, Eoin holds an International Bachelor’s degree in Geography and Sociology from Maynooth University and an MA in Youth, Community and Social Regeneration from University of Limerick. Outside of work he enjoys playing piano, watching music videos on YouTube, and a good cafe date with friends and family.
