Éimí Mhic an Ridire

Dia daoibh!

I'm Éimí Mhic an Ridire, a 27-year-old Irish woman living in the North-East of Scotland.

My passion for creating truly accessible digital experiences is deeply informed by my own perspective as a neurodiverse wheelchair user with hEDS and FND. This is what drives my work in web development and design, and it’s a focus of my studies in Computing & IT and Design at the Open University.

I believe in building bridges, not walls, which is why I detest platform "wars" and contribute to Open Source projects. When I'm not working on modern tech, I love tinkering with my collection of PowerPC-era Apple computers, including G3 and G4 models running various classic OS versions from 9.2 to 10.4.

In my spare time, I’m learning the Irish language, I'm interested in European politics, and I enjoy co-operative video games (especially PvE).
