I'm Richie — Irish, and a bit of an old soul with a curious streak. I’ve lived a fairly colourful life so far, from powerlifting and MMA to working across tech, manufacturing, and education in learning and development. These days, I’ve shifted from being the “big guy at the gym” to focusing more on balance, health, and living with intention.My interests span quite a range: I’m a published landscape photographer, an occasional drummer with a love for rhythm from all over the world (think Samba, African beats, and a bit of Irish trad), and a lifelong learner with four degrees to my name.
