Hardware × Software Engineer
I design and build embedded systems and health-tech — from low-cost IoT glucose monitors to solar trackers and iOS companion apps. Bringing hardware, firmware and clean interfaces together into things people can actually use.
Current obsession: turning messy sensor work into calm little devices.
A mix of hardware, firmware and apps I've built end-to-end.
A low-cost IoT system for non-invasive glucose visualisation. A CircuitPython device pulls live readings from the Dexcom cloud over WiFi, renders them on a colour LCD, and fires audible + LED alarms on lows — paired with a native iOS companion app over Bluetooth.
An iOS app to support diabetes management and data visualisation
A dual-axis solar tracking system in C++ — sensing light direction and driving motors to keep a panel aligned with the sun for maximum yield. Hands-on embedded control, sensors and actuation.
A thrust vector controlled model rocket with telemetry and flight data analysis.
Work, internships and achievements.
Dogpatch Labs
Selected as one of 36 cohort members for Ireland's most competitive Youth Tech Accelerator, developing GlucoBit into a market-ready product.
Aura Leisure
Lifeguarding and Water Safety Training across Aura facilities.
Stripe Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition
Entered GlucoBit — a standalone blood glucose visualisation and alert device — and placed in the Technology category, and won the Medtronic special award
Meaghers Pharmacy
Assisted customers with product queries, managed stock levels with daily inventory checks, and operated tills in a busy retail pharmacy environment.
Head Diagnostics
Hands-on internship at a medical device company, gaining exposure to regulated healthcare engineering, device testing workflows, and product development in a clinical context.
Castleknock College
Completed the Junior Cycle curriculum with a focus on STEM subjects, achieving 7x distinctions and 2x higher merits
Local Enterprise Offices — National Student Enterprise Awards
Competed at the National Student Enterprise Awards and won the Most Commercial potential prize.
SciFest
Presented a science project at SciFest, Ireland's national STEM competition for students. Presented solar tracking as a method to improve solar panel efficiency, winning the Eirgrid sustainable future award.
I'm an engineer who likes to live at the boundary between hardware and software. Most of my work starts with a real-world problem — like making glucose data glanceable for someone living with diabetes — and follows it all the way down: schematic and PCB, firmware on the metal, the cloud calls, and the app in your hand.
I care about systems that are reliable, low-costand genuinely usable — not just demos. I'm comfortable across embedded CircuitPython and C++, native iOS in Swift, and the web. I also enjoy the hands-on side of things: soldering, 3D printing, and designing PCBs.
