Software engineer, PhD survivor and building the future of communities at Outverse.

I’m Fergus Leahy, aka Dr. Ferg, a senior software engineer based in east London. I’m one of the founding engineers at Outverse, where we're crafting the next generation of tools for building the best communities. Outside of work, you'll find me climbing and scoffing pastries at Pavilion.
