#125-Claire-Moore-Hong-Kong-Blog-Photo.jpg

Claire Moore hails from Jordanstown, Co. Antrim and is currently based in Hong Kong after an eight-year stint in Dublin. 

She works in sports marketing and has been involved in planning major events around the globe such as The Irish Open, The World Rugby Sevens Series and The Tokyo 2020 Olympics. 

But shortly after moving to Hong Kong, Claire began to experience some unusual symptoms. 10-days later she was on the operating table for full-blown brain surgery — an event that she claims has changed her life forever. 

This is her story. 

In today's episode we talk about:

  • Why she's so proud to come from Jordanstown

  • What led her to moving away from home

  • How Hong Kong is reacting to COVID-19

  • And the ways her life has changed post-surgery 

Check it out.
