Currently pursuing a B.A. in Theoretical Physics at Trinity College Dublin. I love learning about how things work, which has led me to work on several projects ranging from applied engineering to computational modelling. I'm particularly interested in energy production, grid management, trading strategies, and space technology.

Outside of academics, I enjoy playing poker, guitar, and surfing.

I enjoy listening to music and playing guitar, taking inspiration from artists like Dire Straits, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Fleetwood Mac. I especially enjoy improvising and jamming with friends who play different instruments.

I also like playing poker with friends, experimenting with different betting strategies and exploring controlled or misleading information, such as deliberate or randomized tells.

When the weather allows, I love surfing with friends. My favourite spots are Inch Beach in Kerry and Rossnowlagh in Donegal, though on the right day, Dublin can be great too.
