Mr O’Brien is from Cork City in Ireland, and has lived in the United Kingdom and Qatar. He graduated from University College Cork with a Bachelor of Law, and completed a PGCE course at the University of East London. He has taught at schools in Ilford and Stratford East, London and Qatar.
London was an exciting place to live, with a plethora of cultural diversity. I loved finding out about the traditions and customs of my students. This is one of the main reasons why I chose to pursue a post at an international school in Qatar and now Hong Kong.
I enjoy reading, writing, watching and playing sports and hiking. I am looking forward to finding out more about Hong Kong and to getting to know the NAIS school community.
