Heyo, I’m Seán, your new PRO ;)

Just as I was telling myself to reduce my screen time, it’s now time to spend the year posting right here!

Really excited to letting you know about what’s going on, and to capturing all our events and nights out. Can’t wait to see some old and new faces at our activities and down the lens.

Hello, I be Shane Gilligan and I be the secretary.
I am a 4th year computer science student, but that's ok.
As the secretary I write the emails and by jove are they emails. I genuinely cannay wait to get crackalacking on writing these bad boys, just as I can't wait to start going to activities again properly (They are super fun). If I could describe myself in 3 words, it would be "Incredible at email" so you guys have really lucked out here.
Ok, adios my friends. Catch all you party rockers later!
