Portfolio
This portfolio chronicles my journey through UCD's MSc in Project Management, a collection of work that grows semester by semester as I build the toolkit to become the ecosystem builder I aspire to be. Each project represents not just academic achievement, but my ongoing commitment to developing frameworks that actually work for the entrepreneurs and small businesses I'm passionate about supporting. These pieces showcase how I'm learning to balance the structure of project management with the fluid, human-centered approach required to truly accelerate growth. As I continue through my degree, I'll be adding new work that reflects both my academic progress and my deepening understanding of what makes entrepreneurial ecosystems thrive.
Who am I... Really
This paper explores my journey from persona to authenticity through psychological assessment and real-world experience. Discover how I transformed a personal failure into a sustainable leadership philosophy that balances ENFP passion with practical structure. Learn how my commitment to creating inclusive spaces stems from my own search for belonging, and how I now channel that energy into building ecosystems where entrepreneurs and ideas can flourish together.
Strategic Analysis Case Studies
My case studies on Starbucks, EA, and Meta represent my foundation in strategic thinking—analyzing internal capabilities against external market forces to craft impactful recommendations. This exact skill set translates directly to accelerating startups: the ability to quickly assess a company's position, identify blind spots, and chart a path forward.

Through a detailed paper and presentation, we uncovered the critical lapses in communication, quality control, and ethical oversight that led to the disaster. The lessons on proactive risk assessment and structural integrity are profoundly applicable to the startup world, where scaling too quickly without sound foundations can be equally catastrophic.
