About me

I'm a marketer in Dublin, currently Growth Lead at Yard. I've spent seven years in tech working on brand, product, partnerships, community and go-to-market, in Oslo, Amsterdam and at home. Away from work I play bridge and chess: I've captained Irish bridge teams, won the Under-21 Home Internationals, and won the All-Ireland and British Schools chess championships. I also have a YouTube channel.

Things I believe

  • Writing things down is how you find out what you think
  • Small, steady progress beats bursts of effort
  • Good work comes from caring about details nobody asked for
  • Be honest about where you are today
  • Make things for people you know
