Laura Kelly Articles

I have been a hard worker from a very young age, working in a debt collection agency (All Ireland Credit Services Ltd.) every summer and school holiday for as long as I can remember; therefore I have a very strong backround in Credit Control and Debt Collection.

I have completed the Irish President's Gaisce award to bronze level where I had to learn a new skill, help out in the community and help an eldery person, which I found it extremely rewarding. I am very much a people person, I was an elected member of the Student Council in school and a voluntary member of the International Society and a peer-to-peer mentoring group at university.

I have studied Business Studies and French to degree level at the University of Limerick. I am currently starting up the company Credit Control Covered with my father Anthony Kelly. I hope to get the company on its feet in the next few months and get people talking about what the company has to offer - as its tutorial is extremely beneficial to anyone advancing credit in Ireland.
