Product Owner

As a software developer at IGI I’m currently involved in writing the new version of p:IGI and the new Metis product.

Before joining IGI, way back in 2001 I started at the University of Birmingham on a Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence degree. By 2010, I’d completed a PhD in Failure Detection within Peer-to-Peer systems. I then turned traitor by swapping allegiances and working with Aston University (also in Birmingham) on a Knowledge Transfer Partnership scheme to develop Advanced Planning and Scheduling software.

My professional interests include artificial intelligence, self-organising systems, and distributed systems. However, in general I just love working with people, finding out what they need, solving problems and building awesome stuff.

User Group Summary

Unfortunately, as the sun set on the summer solstice on the beach at Westward Ho! we did not see a fabled green flash. However, there are several outcomes we can share with everyone!
