About me

People call me JR

I create websites for SME’s and non-profits who want to make a big impact but leave a small footprint.

I’ve been an award-winning blogger, co-founder, marketing consultant, event coordinator, a once upon a time Youth Worker, and just before setting up Kindly JR in Feb 2022, I was an in-house Brand & Online Manager for a zero-waste grocery store.

Leixlip is home and home is where I work and am also a member of my Tidy Town Committee. I’ve been vegan for 13 years and actively striving to implement a more sustainable lifestyle since 2016. This year I’m taking part in An Taisce’s Climate Ambassador Programme. These values underpin everything I do. It’s important for me to practice what I preach and I do this with the work that I choose to do and the people I choose to work with.

I’m purpose and UX-led, putting people and the planet at the heart of all my projects. Using WordPress open-source technology to build high performance websites while also building ongoing partnerships with my clients.

I want to help bring about positive social change – this starts with us as individuals, before spreading out across our communities and networks.
