About

If you’ve reached this page, it’s probably because you’re wondering who’s writing this blog.

My name is John Kelly and in my past lives I’ve been (in no particular order) a systems administrator, a student, a web developer, a designer, an actor, and a journalist. I’ve lived in Rome, Italy and Warsaw, Poland. Right now, I live in Dublin, Ireland with my beautiful wife and two hilarious, mischievous, wonderful children and I make a living as a swashbuckling staff devops engineer at a scrappy startup.

I blog very infrequently, but you can also find me on Mastodon at @johnke@social.lol, where I toot even more infrequently. I like to keep track of the films I’ve been watching over on letterboxd/johnke. I’ve gotten back into scrobbling the music I listen to and if you want to follow that, I’m johnke on last.fm.
