Throughout her undergraduate degree, she worked in various jobs relating to journalism, academic writing, and marketing. Mariah hopes to provide excellent marketing graphics and pr content to encourage a broader net of partners, sponsors, and writers within the Cúirt community.

Sheridan is the Programme Intern for Cúirt. Her love of reading brought her to Galway from the United States.
