MARILOUISE HUGHES | PRESIDENT

Marilouise Hughes We finally managed to lure Marilouise over to the dark-side to the Committee last year and boy it was worth it! This girl from Claregalway brings a wealth of experience in event planning, Christmas parties, birthdays, masses – you name it! When she’s not busy being the Social Queen with a Globe Trotting lifestyle to rival Kim Kardashian, she manages to squeeze in heading up a global compliance team & is mom to the coolest gangster doggies in town, Ronnie & Reggie. Later tonight she will be leading the inaugural St Patrick’s Society Yoga Class at 4.30am outside Jo Bananas on Luard Road. First up is “The Plank”,followed by “Downward Dog”!

AISLING DWYER

Aisling Dwyer This champagne drinking, hockey playing, yummy mummy has recently bagged herself a place on the ‘Top 40 Under 40’ legal professionals in Asia!! WHOA! #shesnailedit #typicalcorkwoman #hotshotlawyer When she’s not instructing others or polishing her accolades, she’s dealing with St Pats admin, ninja style. Our green card sponsors would be nothing without Aisling’s quality PR! With her beautiful handbags, thirst for fine wine and no-need-to-argue negotiation skills, she’s the model committee member, putting the rest of us to shame. Saskia has a super-mama on her hands and Ian has definitely struck gold!

LUCY BANS

Lucy Bans Lucy joined the Committee last year, not only to satisfy our quota of folks from the Wesht but to bring the Society into the 21st century and beyond with her amazing tech skills. She is a force to be reckoned with,
managing two gorgeous kids at home, a team of IT experts at work, a Scottish husband (can’t be easy!) and now the social media needs of the Society, and all with a glass of beer (and glamorous handbag) in hand. You can catch her IGing, tweeting and dropping hashtags on behalf of @stpatrickssociety so be sure to follow her.

STEPHEN BROWNE

Stephen Browne Hailing from Dublin, Stephen is a trained barrister which, he tells us, is different to the qualifications held by Starbucks employees. Stephen moved to Hong Kong in 2016, working as General Counsel for a new technology firm and last year became one of the co-founders of a Crypto currency start-up. He joined the Saint Patrick’s Society committee this year to offer his legal mind and tech savviness. Unfortunately Stephen paid for his ball tickets in Bit Coin, but by the time we got them to the bank the coins could only buy us half a lager.

Hilary brings with her a wealth of Marketing experience and lots of ideas to help develop activities for the younger members of the society . Being a busy Mum to four children in HK she certainly knows what’s fun to do .
We are looking forward to having Hilary on board this year .
