Background

About Billy Moynihan

My professional experience has equipped me with a diverse set of skills, and at the heart of it all is a genuine passion for ocean conservation. During my experience in the dynamic environment of Nandos I developed excellent teamwork skills and the ability to thrive under pressure. Additionally, my academic pursuits at both St. John's Central College and UCC have cultivated crucial laboratory and fieldwork expertise through scientific studies and surveys. Beyond traditional academic pursuits, I ventured into the realm of technology by establishing and running a successful podcast for the past 5 years. This endeavour not only sharpened my computer skills but also provided hands-on experience in audio and video recording, as well as effective social media presentation. My current role at a Canary Islands research station sees me focusing in on marine biology, where I monitor cetaceans and manage volunteers, enhancing my leadership and organisational abilities. Accompanying my professional journey is a history of success in public speaking and debate, reflecting confidence in articulating ideas effectively. I seek to make a tangible impact in various capacities, all centred around my fervent commitment to advancing ocean conservation initiatives.
