The Basics:
I grew up in Ireland and I have sailed competitively all over the world.
A bit about me:
For many years, I worked as an Irish Sailing Association Race Coach and a Senior Program Organiser
I have an International Baccalaureate Diploma
and a B.A. Hons from Trinity College Dublin
TSM History & Philosophy 2004 - 2008
41 points with a science
focus2002 - 2004
Whilst in college I cultivated a passion for media production
“Sustainability”Performance is
one of my strong points
I also became very interested in
So when I left college, I started off trying to sell electric scooters
However, I was really lucky
I got to know some really amazing, fun and interesting people who had just started a business selling electric cars
The GreenAer Mobility Team
The EGO Street Scoota
but I couldn’t get the
insurance companies to
offer a fair price for
covering the under 25’s
Me!Not me!
… so I tended to be involved in a lot more than just the marketing aspects
I was able to join their dynamic team and we got to work marketing the cars:
but it was a small business…
There was a lot of talking to the press
“The Government wants to encourage the increased use of environmentally friendly electric cars and the development of new technology in this field. To that end, the VRT exemption for electric vehicles and the VRT reliefs of up to €2,500 for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles are being extended by two years until 31 December 2012. We will also provide support to offset the initial battery costs for such cars.”Brian Lenihan, Minister for Finance2009 Budget Speech
and lobbying was very important
After about a year I had a BIG IDEA
GoCar Tours in San Francisco had been awarded Time Magazine’s Invention of the Year in 2004 for equipping three-wheeled scooters with some GPS technology – they invented a self-guided audio tours of the city.
I thought: “Surely there is huge potential for
something like this in Dublin!”
This was my feasibility study
… so for 9 months I worked on building the ‘intelligent car’
the prototyping reached completion
we had even pretty much
secured funding for a Beta test…
the was script written and recorded
everything had been tested
we had the branding concept ready
but…(there’s always a but)
… in Ireland in 2010, larger forces were
at work
our ‘leader’ at the time
Imperial College Business School
… so I’m taking the opportunity to do an MSc in Management for a year
I’m also responsible for voice production in an up-and-coming HD music television channel…
… and I when I can, I provide some help with new media marketing and some other technology related stuff
