Hi, I'm Dónal Murray (seadanda).

I've been contributing to Polkadot since I joined the system parachains team at Parity eight months ago.
Soon after I started I became involved in the Agile Coretime project, and over time I have developed ownership over the Coretime Chain runtimes and the broker pallet.
I have played a key role in preparing and launching the Coretime Chain on Rococo, Westend and Kusama.
