From Athletic Backgrounds to Office Settings: The Unique Journey of BDO's Sporting Figures

Our guests today are not just exceptional professionals at BDO but also former athletes who have excelled in their respective sports.

Let's meet: Cian O'Sullivan, Director in Tax at BDO, who brings a wealth of experience from the world of GAA. Conor McKeon, a member of Audit Team 4, whose rugby career took him from St Mary's and Gonzaga to the professional stage. Melanie O’Connor, Head of Marketing, who represented Australia in three swimming World Championships, winning two silver and one bronze medal.

This was very much a trip down memory lane for me as I reflected on my swimming journey from the early 2000’s. It’s nice to have the opportunity to share what I’ve learnt with others, and also, be appreciative for the experience and all it’s taught me.
