​

My name is Sinead. Yes, (Shin + aid), like Sinead O'connor.

Those who can't pronounce it call me Shine (Shy + ne)

My mother is Belgian, my father is Irish and my husband is Spanish.

​​​

Cinema is the love of my life. My passion for storytelling and transmitting emotions led me to become an actress so I dove into camera acting classes in Paris  and spent as much time as I could on film sets... my favourite place in the world.

​

I freelanced as a reporter, presenter and journalist for various international media channels such as CNN, BBC, Reuters, the Wall Street Journal, CNBC... meeting inspiring people from all over the world. I got to tell their stories and give their truth a voice. 

 

In between castings and film shoots, I spend time as a volunteer getting to know the homeless & refugees with the Red Cross; they have taught me some of the best life lessons. I have also completed a masters degree in animal therapy with dogs and horses to work with the elderly.

​​

I look forward to meeting you. After all, you're never safe from a good surprise !
