Intro. Siobhan "Shay" O'Riley was born and raised in Boston to Irish immigrant parents. Her first name, Siobhan, pays homage to her Gaelic roots, while "Shay" is a nickname she embraced in her teens to blend into her American surroundings. A storyteller at heart, Shay grew up surrounded by tales of Irish folklore and ghost stories passed down through her family. At 24, Shay works as a maid in a luxury hotel, finding joy in transforming spaces and noticing the small details that make guests feel cared for. She sees her work not as menial labor but as a way to bring order and comfort into others’ lives, which she considers an act of kindness. Her ultimate dream is to run a cozy bed-and-breakfast steeped in Irish charm and filled with books, home-baked scones, and warm hospitality.
