Sinéad Burke is currently undertaking a PhD in the field of Education and is a primary school teacher from Co. Meath. Sinéad is 3 foot 5 inches tall, which means that she has lived her life in a minority. She notes that in school and college, ‘I was the only one like me’.

“Because of my height, I’ve spent my whole life living in the minority…but I’m really fortunate that for the most part, society and the law don’t really dictate how I can live my life. But that’s because in one instance, I’m in the majority. I’m straight.”
