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

focus

2002 - 2004

Whilst in college I cultivated a passion for media productionI also became very interested in

“Sustainability”

Performance is one of my strong

points

So when I left college, I started off trying to sell electric scooters

but I couldn’t get the insurance

companies to offer a fair price

for covering the under 25’s

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

Me!Not m

e!

… 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

finally, a big Hi5 to @jessedee for his inspiring and innovative ideas about presentations.
