EXPERIENCED SOFTWARE DEVELOPER/ARCHITECT AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE EXPERT WITH MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE AND RESEARCH BACKGROUND My interest in computer science and programming emerged early in my life, when I got a Sinclair Spectrum at the age of 7. Ever since I have been involved with software development in some way. I developed an intense interest in Artificial Intelligence along the way, which eventually led me to complete a PhD degree in that field. My PhD research topic was attention mechanisms for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) systems and resulted in two awards (including one sponsored by Ray Kurzweil) and a keynote invitation.
