Conroy was elected to Dublin City Council in the May 2019 local elections. This is her first time contesting a general election. She is an opinion writer for the Irish Independent. She works as an architectural conservation specialist. She has a degree in English and history of art and architecture and she has two Masters degrees. She became a practicing barrister in 2016. She was involved in an ECHR case against the state in the '00s on the right to terminate a viable pregnancy.
My personal background has evidence of courage and integrity. I work to deadlines and deliver my responsibilities and I do not let people down. There is just not enough work done for people who need help.
I have several priorities. We need more medical staff and relevant management. We need more Special Needs education schools, not just teachers.
I want to survey proposed development sites, state land, calculate exactly what is being developed, what is planned, where social housing combined with affordable housing is being built. I would analyse the cost and try to resolve the major issue of homelessness.
