01 — ABOUT

Building things that matter.

Mobile & Cloud Engineer based in Dublin, Ireland, completing an MSc in Cloud Computing at National College of Ireland. My thesis on proactive Kubernetes pod migration reduced latency by 67.8% and downtime by 90% on real-time edge workloads.

Previously at Nextbridge (May 2022 – Sep 2024), I shipped apps with 500K+ downloads, architected KMP/CMP cross-platform solutions, and led security-focused code reviews across distributed mobile/cloud systems.

My stack spans pixel-perfect Android & Flutter apps to serverless AWS architectures, to systems-level tools in Rust with compile-time memory safety.
