The striker with Laois heritage has settled in quickly into the international scene.
Republic of Ireland captain Katie McCabe says they plan to be "difficult to play against" when they take on Sweden this evening.
Vera Pauw's team are in Gothenburg to take on the Group A leaders in the World Cup qualifiers at 5.30pm Irish time.
Ireland are planning without injured trio Savannah McCarthy, Diane Caldwell and Megan Campbell.
Vera Pauw thinks her team will have to raise her game to compete:
"This is the kind of game that we want to be involved in and one that we must experience if we are to achieve our goal of qualifying for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. We are going into a full stadium to play the second-highest ranked team in women's football, so we have no option but to raise our game.
"We have prepared as best as we can within the timeframe that we have been given. We have four difficult qualifying games to go in our Group and we feel ready to take on those challenges.
Sweden is up next and we fully respect their quality. We know that we will have to adapt to their game as they are second in the world. We hope to continue the good form that we have shown in recent games and compete as a team against this massive team."
