Excited to join Red Hat as Technical Writer — Cloud Storage & Data Services! 🎉

I reviewed and suggested editorial changes for https://kind.engineering in collaboration with the author, other engineers, and editors. The website is a textual adaptation of a conference talk of the same name, detailing a number of learning points around kindness in tech.

The Irish government officially launched their COVID-19 Recovery Certificate request service today. However, they made a spelling error in registering the domain name.

Upon realizing this, I quickly registered the correct spelling to prevent scammers from phishing Irish citizens. A friend — who pointed out the misspelling — joined me in creating the website we deployed.

Covered in The Journal, The Irish Times, Newstalk, and The Daily Swig.

Ended my journey as Staff Writer at University Express!

Following my talk at SISTEM 2020, I was invited back to deliver a lightning talk at SISTEM 2021 on the Linked Web.

I interviewed electronic musician Marcus Woods (aka. Ryan Cullen) as part of my role as Staff Writer with Byline, University Express. It was promoted to the cover page of the magazine by the Editor-in-Chief.

It was a humbling experience to sit with a creative of Cullen's caliber, touching on subjects such as mental health, the music scene in Ireland, and what the future held for his musical endeavors.

The interview can be read over here.
