Hi, I'm Ryan Delaney and I'm a fifth year computer science student at the University of St Andrews pursuing my passions in software development and in technical theatre. Experience working as a full stack web developer, building web applications in React and NodeJS (with the majority of my work being done in Typescript, coming from a Java background), currently working on a drop in Event and Venue Management System for deployment into Student Associations to streamline event management processes.

Beyond my academics, I spend my time immersed in technical theatre with a specialisation in lighting. Currently working as the entertainments convenor for my Students Association, managing a team of technicians with specialisations in lighting, sound, projections and AV. I'm developing my skills as a lighting designer and trying to expand my experience in specialised technical work such as pyrotechnics.

I love to learn new things and develop new projects. Always eager to talk and develop my experience and repertoire!
