TV, radio, online and in-person interviews and events

I’m an accomplished public speaker and have spoken at tech events of all sizes across Ireland, the UK and Europe. I keynoted at the Mobile World Congress 2014 alongside Mark Zuckerberg. I’ve started speaking and reading at literary events, which are a lot less scary than tech events.
