For fun, I like to snowboard, scuba dive, jump out of planes, drink red wine and travel.

I enjoy traveling the world to give keynotes and take part on panel discussions about the future of messaging, AI, chatbots, cybersecurity and cryptocurrency. I specifically like to help people think deeper about ethics and integrity when building AI and chatbots.

I invested in and became an equal partner in an Indian restaurant in Dublin when I was 29. It’s called Jaipur and has a Michelin Star.
