I'm Amy O'Riordan, a passionate Irish historian, folklorist, and language enthusiast. My research interests include women's history, LGBTQIA+ history, and the history of magic, witchcraft, and folk practices in Ireland. With a Bachelor's degree in Irish Language and a Master's degree in Irish Regional History, I'm dedicated to sharing my knowledge and contributing to the preservation of Irish cultural heritage.

Expertise

My expertise lies in exploring the lesser-known corners of Irish history and culture, with a focus on uncovering untold stories and shedding light on marginalized voices. Whether it's delving into the lives of remarkable women throughout history or unravelling the mysteries of ancient folklore, I'm passionate about bringing these narratives to light.

I've contributed to various articles related to Irish history, folklore, and language on Wikipedia, aiming to provide accurate and well-researched information for readers. Some of my contributions include expanding articles on notable figures in Irish history, documenting folklore traditions, and improving the coverage of LGBTQIA+ history in Ireland.

Current Projects

At the moment, I'm working on several research projects related to women's history, folklore, and language revitalization efforts in Ireland.
