Adama Lorna

Adama Lorna is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer, creator, and founder of RenColl (Renaissance Collective). She builds systems that help multi-passionate professionals navigate, manage, and thrive with their multiple passions and skills without burning out or diluting their impact.

Her work is shaped by her own nonlinear career journey, moving from studying geography into large-scale systems engineering, and later into content creation, brand partnerships, and public speaking. This lived experience underpins her systems-based approach to modern thought leadership, where multiple passions are integrated intentionally rather than treated as distractions.

Adama has grown a YouTube platform of over 185,000 subscribers, has over 240,000 followers across platforms, worked with organisations including AWS, Samsung, and HP, the department for education and work and pensions and spoken at industry events such as Women of Silicon Roundabout. Through RenColl, her content, community and speaking, she supports ambitious, multi-passionate people who want clarity, sustainability, and leverage.
