About Me

From bedside
to build side.

I spent 4 years in healthcare — work that was deeply meaningful, demanding, and shaped how I think about solving real human problems. But I always felt a pull toward creation. I wanted to build things that could scale, things that could last.

So I taught myself to code. I dedicated myself fully, spending months going deep on JavaScript, Python, and software fundamentals before landing my first engineering role at CallCrewAI, a Dublin-based AI startup.

''

My healthcare background isn't a footnote it's a genuine asset. I understand end-users, I work well under pressure, and I care deeply about the impact of what I build. I'm now looking for a full-time software engineering role where I can keep growing and contribute to something meaningful.
