Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Irish Tech News is my start in Journalism so only in 2016.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes. The last time would be just over 20 years ago now and I even did an exam for it :)

How is social media changing news?

It's in some ways making us more accountable. We have to respond faster to stay in the moment better.

When's the best time to pitch you?

Not when I'm at an event pretty much. I'm very mission orientated...

What's your favorite drink?

Barrys Tea.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Asleep...

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

People think tech can be really boring and humourless. The people I have met doing this are anything but!
