Welcome! I’m Richard Dada, your host at Triple 8 Labs. Here, I’m building a playground to explore my personal interests in technology, communication and data. But first, let’s get the formalities out of the way; by using this site, you’re confirming awareness and acceptance of the terms and conditions and it’s also worth taking a look at my promise not to spy if you’re curious about how your data is handled!
As the title says, the purpose of this page is to explain the background of the site, so here’s my story. I’m the product of a blend of different cultures, countries and other influences, currently living in the Netherlands. My professional experience is in the design, creation and maintenance of bespoke IT systems in financial environments, so when not relaxing or changing my quadrant, I’m enjoying navigating the challenges from my role as a Senior Developer / Chapter Lead and reflecting on what comes next.
At Triple 8 Labs, I combine my passion for tech by diving into different, hopefully innovative, experiments for several reasons: for fun, to learn and sometimes to be monetised. To support this work I share clearly identified affiliate links to products that I support as well as other adverts, and you’re always welcome to buy me a coffee!
Beyond technology, it’s very rewarding to see others overcome challenges and build confidence in their own abilities, so I’m also to new ideas and opportunities to improve and grow my coaching and leadership skills.
I hope the time and interaction during your visit is relaxed, enjoyable and memorable enough to come back for more! And needless to say you’re invited to contact me with any inquiries.
