A little about me

Hey - I’m Ash and I’m passionate about solving problems and building things.

In that spirit, I want to create software that feels light and intuitive, and that brings joy to the people who use it(however little).

In the past, I was

• a student at UCD,
• President of Netsoc - UCD’s Computer Science Society,
• an intern at Bloomberg, Stripe and Toast.

These days I’m a Software Engineer at Stripe, on the Secure Frameworks team where I’m learning, exploring, and building all things Web Security.

Outside of work I find pleasure in baking, reading, walking, and travelling whenever possible.

At some point, I’d like to get into research and academia, but for now I’m happy to be working on interesting problems with great people. (That being said, if you have any interesting research ideas, or projects, I’d love to hear them!)

I’ll try to write more often about my experiences but until then, I’m always happy to chat!
