Ireland Week!

October 3, 2017 — 1 Comment

I’ve been invited to speak on a panel during Ireland week, in Los Angeles on Oct 19th.

For those that don’t know, I was Born in Northern Ireland, went to school there until I was 17, then moved to England to work full-time in the video game industry.

When I moved to the USA I lost my accent really quickly, however, what’s really weird is just how freakishly tall I am compared to most Irish people!

That said, I love helping Irish entrepreneurs and love going back to the old country.

I have 10 free passes, just email me if you want one!
