Hi and welcome to my Blog!

I am a Solutions Architect based in Dublin, Ireland, with over 10 years of professional experience as a software developer and architect. I specialise in Microsoft Azure and the wider Microsoft stack.

Day to day I help customers architect and build cloud native applications on Azure, and migrate or modernise existing workloads. I am Azure Solutions Architect and DevOps Engineer certified, and I spend a fair amount of time on application platform, IaC, identity and developer experience topics.

Outside of client work I like building small side projects to scratch an itch or try a new technology. A few of them end up here as posts. You can find the source for most of them on GitHub.

I am also a contributor to the local tech community through the Cloud Lunch and Learn initiative, and have spoken at community events on Azure reference architectures, including event-driven and event sourcing.

Away from a keyboard I have volunteered with Banco Alimentar Contra a Fome since 2012, helping sort and prepare food donations.
