I realised a long time ago that everyone is making it up as they go along, some are just better than others at telling the story.

⬅︎ This little lad's name is Tadhg, which means "story teller" in the Irish language.

I'm founder of Cohort, we help professionals uncover meaningful, valuable relationships in their network.

In 2011 I sold my last company, Orchestra, to Engine Yard, Inc. There, I held the roles of VP Engineering and VP Developer Relations, until August 2014.

I've done some angel investment, having invested in Intercom, Trustev, Barricade, Circa, Sprintly, Ruby & Duke, and Brewbot.

I'm a board member of ReachOut, a mental health charity that works with young people, helping them get through tough times, and I'm a former board member of the Coder Dojo Foundation.

In my spare time, I'm launching a small family distillery, making poitín, whiskey and gin.
