Irish, in America.

I’m David Carr. I grew up in Ireland and moved 3,535 miles away from home to pursue graduate school at the University of Notre Dame — and have stayed ever since.

Day job: architecting systems and building dashboards that surface a centralised, single source of truth.

Apps I’m building: Pi-Squared is a Wordle for Math, Braindex is the first daily AI game, and MovieToons creates movies from people’s memories.

Here: I read so many newsletters, watch so many founder interviews, and listen to so many great podcasts — it’s time I started sharing my own learnings. Hence this site: a newsletter and whitepapers where I share what I’m learning and what I’m building. Thank you for following along.

Passions: sport, learning, mathematics, technology, writing.

Education: I studied Actuarial Mathematics in Dublin and Technology, Engineering & Entrepreneurship at Notre Dame.
