Jo Linehan will host the DFS Interiors Theatre every day of the Show

Jo Linehan began her career in journalism as a Junior Editor at IMAGE Magazine in 2011. After five years at the leading fashion and lifestyle publication, she moved to New York to pursue a fashion styling and freelance writing career. On her return in 2016, she co-founded GAFF Interiors, Ireland’s premier online publication, for affordable interior inspiration and advice.

Since 2019, Jo has worked extensively to support sustainable brands and initiatives, returning to gain her MSc in Management for Sustainable Development at Dublin City University and launching her independent podcast series, Futurist.

She runs GAFF Shop, a circular economy platform where like-minded interior lovers can buy and sell pre-loved home pieces.
