Since 2008, Daniel has focused his skills and expertise around student services, activity programming, accommodations, procurement and staff management, sales and marketing, client relations, and health and safety. Holding roles such as the Duty Manager and Academic Coordinator at Corrib Village, a large student accommodation facility in Galway, Ireland, and at the Griffith College housing facilities in Dublin, where he provided exceptional service to the CEA CAPA Dublin team and our students, has allowed Daniel to understand and meet the range of needs that students have to complete a successful program abroad. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce, Accountancy (Honors) degree from the National University of Ireland, Galway, and a Higher Diploma in Project Management from Griffith College, Dublin.

Amy is from Ireland and graduated from the University of Galway with a Bachelor of Commerce degree in 2018. Since then, she has worked in several different sectors, from working with the elderly as an activity coordinator during the COVID-19 pandemic, to more recently working in business administration. Amy is a keen traveler and has been fortunate enough to travel and work abroad in Canada, Finland, and now Australia, gaining valuable cultural experiences and meeting people from all over the world. In Canada, she worked as a program and activity coordinator at a children's camp, and in Finland she worked in tourism. Amy is so excited to be a part of the CEA CAPA team and looks forward to the adventures ahead and welcoming lots of new students to Sydney.
