She has a background in equine education, contributing to the development of professional equine courses and works with a range of horses and their guardians.

Irene lives with two Romanian rescue dogs, a Devon collie and three cats, and fosters dogs both from the UK and abroad. She has a particular interest in the rights of human and non-human others, engendering cohesive and empathic interspecies relationships.
