About me

Right now the main focus of this website is my upcoming book, “Piñatas for the Year of the Dragon: Conversations With Current and Former Expats in South Korea,” which will be available in November. This is my debut as an indie author — I’m NOT Eileen Cahill the children’s author, or the Eileen Cahill who co-wrote a series of books on role-playing game tournaments.

I’m a freelance communications professional who lives in Seoul with my beautiful cat, Jellybean. My work has appeared in the Korea Herald, the Korea Times and Groove Korea. My blog (currently undergoing maintenance) is where I discuss things I’m reading or watching, projects I’m working on, and topics on my mind. 

About Jellybean

They say we all have an inner cat who hisses at strangers, judges everyone and wants to sleep all day long. This precious Persian, Jellybean, came to me in 2013 through an emergency rehoming situation and now we’re best friends. She’s much too angelic to judge anyone … or at least I hope so.
