In 2005 I completed an MSc in Artificial Intelligence in Edinburgh University, specialising in Natural Language. Prior to that I worked for Orbism, a Dublin-based IT consultancy for several years. And going back even further, I gained a PhD in Mathematics from Aberdeen University, supervised by Graham Hall, in 1994.
