She was crowned Irish National Champion five times over. Now a marine social scientist, Easkey holds a PhD in Environment and Society. She is co-founder of the NGO Like Water which uses the power of the sea as a creative medium for social change and spear-headed the world’s first global Surf for Social Good Summit.
