About Me

A little bit about my background and what I do

I'm a Software Engineer and AI Engineer based in Cork, Ireland, with an MSc in Artificial Intelligence (First Class Honours) from Munster Technological University and a BTech in Computer Engineering (CGPA 9.68/10).

I've worked across the full stack — from C++ microservices at Capgemini to ML pipelines and industrial IoT at Qio Technologies.

I enjoy building things end-to-end — whether that's training ML models, designing backend systems, or shipping full-stack web applications.

Currently open to ML, AI, Software, and Backend Engineering roles in Ireland.
