A Mechanical Engineer, I graduated from UCD in 2014 and have worked in Engineering, Space Education and Communications since then. I worked to bring the 2017 Space Studies Program to Ireland last year, (the worlds biggest space learning program) where we had astronauts, scientists, and artists teaching students about all things space.
I am an avid scuba diver and surfer and in my spare time you can find me building things and generally making a mess in my workshop.
