Supriya Singh is an Irish politician, human resources professional, and former journalist. She was elected to Dublin City Council in the 2024 local elections, representing the Donaghmede ward as a member of Fine Gael.
Early life and education

In Ireland, Singh transitioned to a career in human resources. She completed a CIPD Diploma in Human Resource Management at the National College of Ireland (2019–2020).
Political career
